COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho — In the two years Anne Hadin has been playing pickleball, she’s made a lot of friends — enough to fill the Coeur d’Alene Public Library Community Room.

“It’s like family,” she added.

Councilwoman Christie Wood said pickleball players are “incredibly passionate” about their sport.
