Need more indoor pickleball courts? Group hopes to open 16,000-square-foot building this year

by Adam Daigle | Acadiana business editor​ ​ ​

Good Monday morning, Acadiana business news readers. It's business news time here. Let's get started. 

Some of you probably can't get enough of pickleball. The rising popularity led five players from the Lafayette area to come up with an idea: build an indoor pickleball facility.

The group — Jenny Thibodeaux, Jacques Poirier, Ben Roth, Stephen Roma and Pauly Azar — bought just under 2 acres at 500 Verot School Road earlier this year, and they hope to start construction in August on a 16,000-square-foot building that will house six courts and include concessions and a pro shop.

You can read the full story here.

Have a great day and thanks for reading.
