The Cajun Pickleball Club of Acadiana began more than 20 years ago as a small neighborhood group simply excited to play the game. What started in driveways, backyards, and on borrowed courts steadily grew as more players joined in and more places to play opened across the region.
Today, that grassroots start has grown into a vibrant, welcoming community supported by Recreational Department facilities throughout Acadiana. We continue to honor our history while embracing the growth of the sport, offering a place where players of all ages and skill levels can enjoy pickleball, make connections, and be part of something fun.
