It is NOT a joke. I see McLean HS pickleball players practice regularly at Lewsinville park all the time. The team is actually very good.

Pickleball is not a VHSL sport. It is a club sport at schools that choose to sponsor pickleball clubs. It is wildly popular, especially with the unreasonably competitive tryouts for the traditional sports

I think all the teams had tryouts and I heard that the Woodson pickleball team had cuts this year.

I think mclean had 100 students try out and they cut it down to around 24 people. Seems promising, curious to see where it goes next year.
