welcome to the first episode of a new series where we deep dive into the business of pickleball facilities. The objective is to uncover the stories behind these thriving businesses, explore each facility’s ingredients for success, and what makes them unique. In July I made my first stop to San Diego to visit Pat Rolfes, co-founder of The HUB
