Mgomrjsurf is cryptic, as usual. Not sure what his issue is. Anyway, Pickleball TV is on Plex and a couple of other FAST services. I can't see it as full-time programming on OTA TV for Sinclair or anyone else.
Sinclair added it to some of the ATSC 3.0 channels they own (its streaming)
example of WUCW Minneapolis
I swore I thought this was parody at first. I thought it was a sports parody channel getting a space on YouTube or streaming apps somewhere without any verification.
The FAST services have multiple pickleball channels. Not as many as they have for mixed martial arts, hunting/fishing and motor sports, but more than for mainstream sports like football and baseball. Some even have a couple of cornhole channels!
Are those the “for adults only” ones?

Same with TN2 aka Tennis Channel that's available on TV packages. KRCG doesn't have channel yet.
Pickleball is becoming a big thing. A park near where I live, converted some of the tennis courts into Pickleball courts. I don't quite understand the appeal of it.
I’ve never seen a pickleball game, is it exciting or not?
It's not intended to be exciting. It's a low impact sport that requires less athleticism than tennis, so it is especially popular among the older crowd.
Is it more taxing than shuffleboard?
Why don't you check out the pickleball channels on Plex or Tubi or whatever -- they're all free -- and see for yourself? Action, live and recorded, is on 24/7, with no infomercial filler. But yes, it's more taxing than shuffleboard.
It sounds boring, that's why. And the shuffleboard comment was a joke!
Invented on Bainbridge Island in WA state back in 1965, it has percolated locally around these parts for 50+ years with little fanfare. Then suddenly exploded- I suppose the Boomers who wanted to stay active were what has driven the popularity.
