Really?
The Qualicum Beach Pickleball Club wants to put four pickleball courts on one of the three tennis courts in Qualicum Beach.
A potential of 16 people on one court? Tennis has the potential for 12 people on three courts.
The crowding and noise level would definitely increase especially as pickleball is not a quiet game. And who would monitor the pickleball courts, as on several occasions, the existing tennis courts in Qualicum Beach have been vandalized?
Would you want a pickleball court in your residential area? Also, crowding onto one existing tennis court, in the presence of two others, could potentially cause physical accidents and ill-mannered verbal assaults.
Finally, how committed are the pickleball players if they do not want to engage in fundraising?
