When space is at a premium, it pays to have a trick or two up your sleeve. Gymnasiums that double as dance floors, wrestling rooms, and basketball courts benefit from wall-mounted basketball goals. These pieces of equipment suit a wide variety of indoor and outdoor courts.

Expect a rugged goal that allows for years of use, including the occasional slam dunk. The enthusiasts at Total Sport Solutions can assist you in finding the perfect target for your facility’s needs. Looking for something for the practice gym? We have the solution for you.

When you watch college or professional sports, it is easy to assume each player specialized in their chosen sport from an early age. Who can run 40 yards downfield and catch a pass effortlessly? Consider Olympic athletes. Every two years, the world gets to watch the best gymnasts, bobsled team, or 400-metre track star stand on the podium to receive their medal. It takes a little bit of talent and a whole lot of grit to perform at the levels of these athletes. You may think you should push your child to choose only one sport to excel at. That may be a mistake.

What does it take to beat Serena Williams for the Grand Slam title? Dedication, hard work, and a Canadian powerhouse named Bianca Andreescu. Born to Romanian parents, Bianca has made tennis history as the first Canadian and the first player born in the 2000s to win a Grand Slam singles title. For the first time in her career, she entered the top 10 rankings among worthy players. It’s impressive to imagine the hours of practice and training she has completed since she began playing the sport at the age of seven. She is set to be an inspiration for young athletes across Canada and the world.

Why Pickleball, Of Course!

When it comes to summer fun, many of us like to head outdoors for some sort of activity like hiking, tennis, or bike riding. We often associate pickles with burgers and holey balls with whiffle ball, not an extremely popular game that kids of all ages can play. So, if you are ready for a new adventure that even your grandpa can participate in, pickleball can be the answer.

If you take a drive through your community, you may pass a park or school with empty tennis and basketball courts. In times past, these places would be teeming with players challenging each other to a game of one-on-one or Horse. You could hear the “plop” of a tennis ball being returned across the net. Nowadays, sadly, you mostly hear crickets. You can change that by offering pickleball time for players of all ages in the area.

There is a movement making its way across Canada and the United States. You can even find it growing in Europe and Asia. It involves paddles, a wiffle ball, and a net. Many find that this movement feeds their need for fun with a bit of friendly competition. The oddest part is the name; it sounds like something you would pick up at your local deli, not down at your town’s park. If you have not heard of it before, you are in for a treat. Pickleball is an entertaining sport catching the fancy of all ages. Go ahead – grab a paddle, and your grandma, and head down to the nearest pickleball court to see what the fun is all about!
