Pickleball is rapidly growing in popularity, so while it may not be available right now on St Martin, it certainly could be in the future!

There is a group (including me) that has played pickleball at Rainbow Beach Club in Cupecoy. We added yellow tape to the tennis court there to mark the lines. Alas, I will be moving to Porto Cupecoy in September, and I don't think any of the other members of the group will be on island in October.
We didn't know of any other folks playing pickleball on the island, so we used to joke that we were playing for the St. Maarten national championship. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Our group plays pickleball many mornings now (January 2016) at Rainbow Beach Club (Cupecoy) on the tennis court. The next time we play (tomorrow?) I'll ask folks if anyone of them will be around in March, and get back to you. When in March are you planning to be in SXM?

Hi Ravi, thanks so much for your reply. We will be there March 3 to 10th with paddles and ready to go. That would be great if you can get someone in touch with us. Anyone of your people can email us at cheverie@rogers.com as this is the best way to reach karen and I. Chris & karen cheverie / ottawa ontario canada p.s. what time do they play in the morning?

Chris, that sounds good. I'm not sure of my schedule yet, but I know at least one other pickleball player who will be on island that week. I will send an introduction email to you and him. We currently play every morning at 8:30 am (except Sundays or if it has just rained).
