A camera crew visited Montclair Pickleball in Fair Lawn, New Jersey, to film a segment for FOX’s national TV channel. They covered an event called “Doubles for Singles,” designed to help singles meet while enjoying pickleball.
Event Details
“Doubles for Singles” features two hours of pickleball, along with food, drinks, and music. These events are organized not by skill level but by age, making them inclusive for all participants. The popularity of the event has led to the creation of a new mixer called “Doubles for Couples.” This event also includes pickleball, music, food, and drinks, but takes place on Saturday afternoons. A fun twist is that participants are “NOT allowed to exchange numbers!”
Community Engagement
The excitement around these mixers highlights the growing interest in pickleball as a social activity. Many participants have shared their experiences, and the organizers encourage others to reply with stories about meeting their significant others while playing pickleball.
Upcoming Broadcast
The FOX special about “Doubles for Singles” is set to air on the morning of Valentine’s Day, promising to showcase the fun and connections that can happen on the pickleball courts.
