[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clarification for the people who couldn’t read the whole half page article:

Pickleball is a corollary sport, with bocce, handball, add slow pitch softball.[b] It’s part of the inclusive program, for students with disabilities or average fitness.[/b] It’s the athletic version of non-AP/DE classes.

No one’s stealing your precious D1 scholarship or Ivy League admit by playing pickleball. Sorry if you’re so bitter that not everyone else broke their child’s body for a sport because they don’t share your insecurity about your child’s academic readiness for your sense of entitlement to attend an elite college.[/quote]

Any sport that has limited number of kids on the court and rewards better coordination and fitness will not end up being inclusive. The kids who actually get to play will all be in good shape with good hand eye coordination [/quote]

So you're saying that the schools need to run more sports or meet demand, which is... what they are doing. This is not a new thing. MCPS has had corollary sports for many years. People are just freaking out because pickleball has a funny name. [/quote]
