About Us

Like most great ideas, it started innocently enough—a random idea, two friends, and the need to get out after COVID. Working remotely ten hours a day just wasn’t cutting it.  Not a big plan, just a simple need.

Jacki Neal, posted on a local Facebook group looking for tennis lessons, and was steered into trying “pickleball”.  She and lifelong friend Kelly Cale, decided to give it a try.  After hitting up Amazon for some gear, they began this journey.  After a short time, they agreed that this was fun.  Really Fun.

And as women do, when they get inspired, motivated, or have a great time, THEY TELL THEIR FRIENDS.  And their friends tell their friends.

Fast forward three years--two friends turned into 15, then 25 and now there are over 150+ Pickle Chicks in Forsyth County.

Today, Pickle Chicks not only play pickleball, we give back, partnering with local nonprofits donating, time, resources, and energy to causes that make a difference.  

We have tournaments, events, food and fun on a regular basis.

Its more than a game. It’s a movement.  Women are empowering each other to get better health, fitness and community involvement, one game at a time.
 

We are a spirited community of women united by pickleball—empowering each other to grow, give back, and create waves of kindness, joy, and purpose in our communities.

Her Game.   Her Impact

Great things happen when you bring energetic and fun women together.
