Pickleball didn’t start in a stadium.
It started in a backyard.
In 1965, a few dads on Bainbridge Island, Washington created a simple game to keep their families active and entertained: a plastic ball, wooden paddles, and a lowered net.
By 1967, the first permanent pickleball court was built — the moment a fun family experiment became something lasting.
And that’s exactly what TOCO67 stands for:
Family
A sport everyone can play — kids, parents, grandparents.
Fun
Easy to learn. Hard to stop. Instant rallies, instant smiles.
Exercise
Quick footwork. Fast reactions. A full-body workout without feeling like one.
Back to Basics
No complicated rules. No barriers. Just grab a paddle and play.
1967 reminds us where it started — simple, social, and active.
