Gloucester is no exception to the communities all around the country seeing a surge in the popularity of pickleball. On Sunday morning, 15 players gathered to play on three taped-off tennis courts at Gloucester High School. The group of pickleball enthusiasts hopes one day to have authentic pickleball courts so that more and more people can join the fun while getting great exercise. A couple of these people were out-of-town guests. Sunday’s players included, from left, Jen Coleman (Knoxville, Tennessee), Darcy O’Neil, Denise Finney, Billy Moore, Michelle Jackson, Jill Smith, Blair Mitchell (Knoxville), Val Hogge, Keri-Sue Baker, Karen Kovacs, Keith Scudder and, not pictured, Marcia Berman, Bob Kovacs, Gary O’Neil and Linda Tjossem.
