One headline jumped out these past couple weeks, which comes from Iron Mountain, Michigan. The headline goes… “Rowdy teens? No. Adults playing pickleball.” Apparently, a few neighbors have heard enough of the sound of a pickleball hitting a paddle. The city has decided to restrict hours of play. Hopefully, someone educates the city and neighborhood soon that (1) there are acoustic blocking technology out there that can be applied to fencing; (2) there are noise-dampening pickleball paddles on the market; and (3) every activity has some level of decibels (and pickleball is actually not very high). Maybe the solution is for the upset neighbors to get a paddle in their hands and start playing? If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em, right?
