Anjuna, Goa — August 1, 2025: The vibrant village of Anjuna has a new reason to celebrate. With the grand inauguration of its first-ever Pickleball court, the community has taken a significant step towards promoting health, unity, and recreation. The facility, inaugurated by the Oscar D’Souza family, marks a landmark addition to local infrastructure dedicated to wellness and sport.

The Oscar D’Souza family shared their pride in supporting this initiative. “We hope this court inspires a lifestyle of wellness and active living,” they said. Their vision, along with community leaders, is that such spaces will continue to bring people together.
Local leaders praised the initiative for its focus on mental well-being and social cohesion, citing Pickleball as not just a game, but a new cultural connector for Anjuna.
As villagers rally around this game of paddles and quick footwork, one thing is certain: Anjuna’s love for Pickleball is just beginning.
