Pickleball Professional of the Year Connie McHugh

Connie, who is from Martha's Vineyard, runs a 7-days a week drop in for picklers to come and play. She has hosted several round robins and tournaments. Last summer Connie began a training and playing program where people spent part of a session in the health club learning strength moves to protect themselves from injury on court. The other part of the session was spent on court doing with instructors drills and strategies.

Connie's facility remains a public facility so anyone can come in and take an introductory Pickleball lesson. Connie is big on making matches for players so that new contacts to the club have an equal skill level of competition.
