Their love of pickleball led them to open an indoor facility just for the game
Briefly

The Dinko Pickleball Complex in Miami-Dade is a unique facility offering indoor pickleball courts. Co-owned by Isabel Alonso and Maria Sarmiento, the complex has seen substantial demand during bad weather, notably during hurricane alerts. They offer a vibrant community space for pickleball, with a strong foundation in their shared background and experiences. The venue has quickly become popular, showcasing the intersection of sports, camaraderie, and the booming interest in pickleball, especially as an indoor activity during adverse weather conditions.
"The week we had a hurricane threat, we stayed open until midnight, and we were booked solid. Anytime there's a hurricane, you can expect us to be open until midnight."
"Alonso, a Cuban-American from Miami, has a sports background - she's the former Champagnat Catholic School athletics director... Sarmiento is an accomplished athlete as a soccer player, swimmer and equestrian."
