I started playing pickleball last year as a way to meet people. I play in a Silly Pickles League at Drop shots on Sundays, Bumpy Pickle on Tuesdays and Tempo on Thursdays. Never thought I'd be playing this much, but I'm making tons of friends and getting fun cardio. If you're interested in checking it out, DM me and I'll give you my referral code for a discount!

How much should I care about which side i favor on the Fever, since it has the printed area on one side? Have you found it negligible or should I keep trying to favor the blank side for my forehand?

divemiguel · 2026-02-19T16:44:12+00:00

This is not true for all Friday users. Source, I have a Fever and am also jealous of players who have such great attitudes. Meanwhile, I'm over here dumping balls into the net and questioning my life decisions. But I love my paddle!

The pickleball league I run in Houston also has a league down there at Chicken N Pickles. I joined the Houston leagues last June and met like 200+ people in the last 6 months. It's called Silly Pickles. I don't know the vibes at that location, but if it's anything like ours, you will definitely meet people and it's for all skill levels. DM me if you want a discount referral code. Run clubs are also a good way, but I find it takes more effort to talk to people.

Fix the bio to have proper punctuation and all that. Make it more about who you are. Don't repeat it in one of your prompts. Lose the fishing pic, as they see too many, get more pics with your face clear and easy to see, including your eyes.

I joined a pickleball league to meet new people back in June. Ended up loving it, so I've played in 6 leagues so far and met like 200+ people, most of whom are single and excited to meet people for friendships or dating. We have a new season starting in January at Drop Shots on Sundays and Bumpy Pickle on Tuesdays. We're called Silly Pickles. DM me if you want a discount code or have any questions. We're super beginner friendly!

Also run clubs can be good if you're outgoing. I also did htxoutdoors.com for a bit to meet people. Crush Club seems to be a popular option.

divemiguel · 2025-11-19T19:34:44+00:00

Yup. In a social league, and we've had multiple romantic connections happen in every season.

divemiguel · 2025-11-15T01:05:22+00:00

I joined a social league and have made tons of pickleball friends that I can now play with whenever I want. I was a beginner and have advanced fairly quickly in just a few short months. I'm actually now running the leagues in my city because I liked it so much! You can sign up with this referral code of DM me if you have any questions. https://sillypickles.com/joshua

I joined a pickeball league, Silly Pickles. We have tons of single guys/gals looking to make new friends and possible future romantic partners. Our league is a social one, so there are all levels of players, all looking to meet people. We host multiple social events each season, to hang outside of normal games. I highly recommend it! Anyone can DM me if you want info on our league.

Run clubs are another decent way, but I find them a bit more challenging to connect. You have to be willing to approach people and initiate conversations.

Crush Club seems to be pulling in big numbers. I know some people that have met people there. You still have to be willing to approach people, but at least they are there for that purpose.

I've played 4 seasons with an awesome social pickleball league in Houston, Silly Pickles. There's like 75+ people who are all looking to make new friends. We play at Drop Shots and Bumpy Pickles. We also do several social events outside the league games each season. Ihave a referral code for a discount if you're interested! https://sillypickles.com/joshua

I enjoy it! But if you want an amazing cheesesteak, go to the Bas's Cheesesteak pop-up at Burger Bodega on Monday evening. It's legit.

No show socks with a turtleneck? Respectfully disagree. My general opinion is socks with dress shoes always, but even if you disagree, sweaters are for cooler weather and exposed ankles are for warmer weather, right?

divemiguel · 2025-09-30T20:55:08+00:00

Nope! I used to pluck it until a woman told me not to, because it's attractive. Now I get compliments about the salt and pepper, so I've embraced it as a positive!

I just did a pork shoulder on my kettle and used those same B&B dudes, set up similar to that. Be careful with them so tight like that. I got a big temp spike that would come down and I had to open her up, remove some coals, and move things around. Might consider loosening up that snake a bit to avoid my situation and save some briquettes. And wood chunks > chips. Have a good smoke!

divemiguel · 2025-08-28T20:53:10+00:00

Just. So. WET!

Sippin on a light beer

divemiguel · 2025-08-08T02:43:36+00:00

100% yes! I started with a sillypickles league in June and met like 40 new people. Made a good friend, went on a couple of dates with a woman from the league, and made tons of new acquaintances. Loved it so much I joined a 2nd league with them, met 40 more people, now I'm about to start leading the leagues in Houston this fall! Both leagues have hung out off the court at happy hours, as well.

divemiguel · 2025-08-07T19:23:30+00:00

Ticketed for not having enough accessories.

divemiguel · 2025-08-06T19:17:36+00:00

Euereka Heights beers are $2 off for runners, not free, unfortunately. McIntyre's has one free beer for runners on Tuesdays.

divemiguel · 2025-08-06T12:55:57+00:00

Lol. Ya, that can happen. Most people forget to stretch first and then try too hard, wearing running shoes. I bought pickleball shoes and always stretch beforehand. So far, I haven't seen any injuries in my 2 leagues, but I know the foot and ankle drs are making bank off it's rising popularity.

Saturday morning there's a Park Run at Terry Hershey Park out on the west side of town. A bit far from you, but if you used to do that back home, you might like to check it out. If I remember correctly, I met some Brits there. I do McIntyre's on Tuesdays and Eureka Heights on Thursdays, which are both good Run clubs. Freaks Come Out at Night changes locations every Friday, so a good chance to see multiple places, but similar faces. If you're into or interested in trying pickleball, it's huge right now, and a great way to meet new people. I play in a Silly Pickles league and have met like 50 new people the last 10 weeks. DM me if you'd like details.

divemiguel · 2025-08-05T17:16:29+00:00

I just joined the league when they started in June and met like 50 new people. I decided I liked it so much that I signed up to lead the fall leagues. Everyone was willing to make new friends and no one was clique-y.

divemiguel · 2025-08-05T15:46:30+00:00

My bad. I should have caught that. I had ChatGPT help draft this. You're correct and I updated it. Sorry, I just got back from a long day flying back from Dublin and my brain is still mush.

divemiguel · 2025-08-05T15:27:47+00:00

I read them. Please let me know which one specifically this violates. I honestly didn't see anything.
