PRINCE GEORGE — The PG Tennis and Pickleball Club is one of many areas in Prince George you can play the game of pickleball. The sport seems to be on the rise here in the city and has gained a ton of popularity over the years. Long-time players like David Stewart see the game growing whenever he comes down to the courts, with people always waiting to get a game going.
