Selon l\u2019Association de <em>pickleball<\/em> de la ville de Qu\u00e9bec (APVQ), il y a eu une augmentation de 1094% des membres en huit ans.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Selon Andr\u00e9e Bolduc, pr\u00e9sidente de l\u2019APVQ, leur nombre de membres est pass\u00e9 de 123 \u00e0 1346.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pour combler le manque d\u2019installations de ce sport, Qu\u00e9bec a d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de construire plusieurs terrains pour accommoder les participants de cette discipline. Leur nombre de terrains sont pass\u00e9s de 50 \u00e0 environ une centaine en quatre ans seulement. Pour leur part, Alexis Foley et deux partenaires ont d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de construire un \u00e9tablissement de huit millions de dollars pour le <em>pickleball <\/em>uniquement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> \u00ab On y a jou\u00e9 et on s\u2019est dit, o\u00f9 pourrait-on jouer \u00e0 ce sport ? Et on a r\u00e9alis\u00e9 qu\u2019il n\u2019y avait pas vraiment d\u2019infrastructures. \u00bb, a expliqu\u00e9 M Foley. L\u2019installation Espace <em>Pickleball<\/em>, ouverte depuis ao\u00fbt 2025, et comprend 17 terrains, dont 13 int\u00e9rieurs, et accueille divers \u00e9v\u00e9nements et tournois.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Le <em>pickleball <\/em>est un m\u00e9lange du badminton, du tennis de table et du tennis. C\u2019est un sport simple physiquement puisque le terrain est petit et c\u2019est sans contact physique. Cette accessibilit\u00e9 aide \u00e0 sa popularit\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Il y a de multiples raisons pour lesquelles ce sport a d\u00e9coll\u00e9 en fl\u00e8che. Premi\u00e8rement il y a le fait que ce soit accessible pour tous. Des gens de tous les \u00e2ges peuvent y jouer, Alexis Foley a mentionn\u00e9 : \u00ab C\u2019est tr\u00e8s interg\u00e9n\u00e9rationnel o\u00f9 tu peux \u00eatre un peu plus \u00e2g\u00e9 et jouer avec quelqu&rsquo;un de bien plus jeune. \u00bb Ensuite, c&rsquo;est un sport tr\u00e8s simple \u00e0 apprendre, comme en t\u00e9moigne Andr\u00e9e Bolduc. \u00ab C\u2019est facile \u00e0 apprendre puisque c\u2019est un m\u00e9lange du badminton, du ping-pong et du tennis donc souvent les gens ont d\u00e9j\u00e0 jou\u00e9 \u00e0 ces sports \u00e7a s\u2019apprend alors tr\u00e8s rapidement. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>De plus, ce passe-temps est abordable pour plusieurs, puisque pour une premi\u00e8re exp\u00e9rience, c\u2019est possible de louer l\u2019\u00e9quipement. \u00ab C\u2019est tr\u00e8s facile de commencer \u00e0 jouer, tu n\u2019as pas besoin de beaucoup d\u2019\u00e9quipement, \u00e0 ta premi\u00e8re fois tu peux arriver avec seulement tes souliers et louer le reste. \u00bb, explique M. Foley. Pour s\u2019y mettre plus s\u00e9rieusement, une raquette d\u2019entr\u00e9e de gamme de <em>pickleball <\/em>se situe entre 10 et 80 dollars et un sac de trois balles varie entre 15 et 20 dollars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Xavier Drolet &#8211;
