Pickleball Coming to Disney World: It’s a Small Court, After All

News Frank Cerabino 05-01-2023

Pickleball has been exploding and showing up everywhere, from Central Park in New York, to Walmart promotions, to Pat Sajak and Vanna White hitting balls across the net on the set of Wheel of Fortune.

And now, we can add Walt Disney World to the list. The Florida theme park giant announced in April that some Disney World Resorts hotels will feature pickleball-lined tennis courts, and free pickleball equipment for players to use.

The list of pickleball hotels include Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas, Kidani Village, and Disney’s Old Key West Resort.
