Furthermore, pickleball is a relatively new sport that has gained popularity in recent years. As of my knowledge cutoff, there isn't a well-documented, extensive history of significant events tied to specific dates in pickleball history.

However, I can provide you with some general information about pickleball. Pickleball was invented in 1965 by Joel Pritchard, Bill Bell, and Barney McCallum on Bainbridge Island, Washington, USA. It is a paddleball sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis. The sport is played on a badminton-sized court with a slightly modified tennis net, using solid paddles and a plastic ball with holes.

Pickleball has grown in popularity, particularly among older adults, as it is a low-impact sport that is easy to learn and provides a good workout.
