Hey Armstrong Pickleball Club family 🎾

We mostly use this account for all things pickleball…But every once in a while, someone in our community is doing something that matters far beyond the baseline.

When one of our members is pouring their heart into a cause, fundraiser, awareness event, or community project, we want to help shine a little light on it.

Tammy has something special she’s involved in right now, and we’d love for you to connect with her directly to learn more about what she’s doing, why it matters to her, and how you might support the cause or join the fun.

Pickleball clubs are built on way more than points and paddles. They’re built on people. 💛

So if you see Tammy around the courts, ask her about it. We think you’ll be glad you did.

We highly recommend this amazing program for getting ready for tournament play. Just when you think you’ve got everything dialed in, this will completely expand your understanding of preparation, mindset, and performance. It’s the kind of experience that quietly rewires your confidence and dramatically increases your tournament readiness. 🏓⚡

Do mistakes rattle you? Does losing linger in your head? Do you play it safe to avoid errors—while your negative self-talk runs the show? And what about doubles? Does it irritate you when your partner misses an easy shot? Do they get defensive when you give advice? Do YOU shut down when they give ...

Thank you, Shawnee, for investing your time and energy into preparing both teams for tournament play. We deeply value your expertise, your approach, and the way you coach the whole athlete, not just the game.

The truth is, a coach often stands right in the centre of an athlete’s confidence and has the power to either press “expand all” or quietly place limits around what feels possible. I think it’s safe to say that after working with you, every one of us experienced expansion.

You challenged us, sharpened us, settled our nerves, and reminded us that confidence is not noise, it is trust built one moment at a time. Thank you for helping us walk onto the court a little braver, a little calmer, and far more prepared.

CONGRATULATIONS MADAME VP LISA! 🎉🏓💥

We could not be more excited to celebrate our very own Lisa, who has officially passed her NCCP coaching certification!

What a journey it has been to watch Lisa grow within our club. From walking through the doors as a beginner to becoming an integral part of our board and culture, she has made a meaningful impact in every single role she has stepped into. Whether supporting members, building community, helping navigate challenges, or simply making people feel welcomed and seen, Lisa leads with heart everywhere she goes.

And now… we warmly and proudly get to call her Coach Lisa. ❤️

Lisa is a deeply respected teacher in our community, and it feels incredibly natural to see her step into coaching with the same compassion, patience, inclusivity, and encouragement that have always defined her. We truly believe she is going to make a remarkable difference, especially with women and youth in the sport.

The pickleball world just gained a very special coach.

Please join us in celebrating this exciting accomplishment and cheering on Coach Lisa in this next chapter! 👏🏓🔥

A little poem for our dear friend Richard (Spinny Pants)

Spinny Pants, you whirlwind star,
chasing every ball near and far.
With dizzy turns and fearless flair,
you owned the court without a care.

Now Vernon calls, it’s time to roam,
new courts, new laughs, a second home.
But every spin we try to fake…
reminds us of your signature shake.

We’ll miss your twirl, your joyful stance,
there’s only one true Spinny Pants. 🎾

Just a reminder, we do not have Pickleball Monday the 13th or Tuesday the 14th as Still Standing will be taping in the arena for a live audience portion!

STILL STANDING follows Canadian comedian Jonny Harris as he sets off across the country, to discover the hidden comedy in Canada’s small towns.
