Subject:Indoor Pickleball Courts
Dear Joe,
I am writing this e-mail in support of the petition to rezone property located at the Pennwood Office Park
in Carmel, Indiana.
I have been playing pickleball for 6 years and currently play about 5-6 times per week in Carmel and the
surrounding area. I have found that it is difficult to find facilities that offer indoorpickleball court times
that are on dedicated pickleball courts. A great majority of the facilities offer pickleball on basketball
courts and/or share court time with tennis or other sports, such as basketball. It is especially difficult to
find court times in the evenings during the week and on weekends, which is needed for people that work
full time during normal business hours. With the weather we have in Central Indiana (rain, wind and
snow), the ability to play pickleball indoor is much needed at least 4 or 5 months of the year.
This facility is important to our community because Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in the United
States and pickleball courts are in huge demand at this time. I would love the opportunity to play indoor
pickleball in this new facility and fully support this petition so that a new pickleball facility can be built.
Thank you for your consideration.
