Through the interactive development of a business model, we will explore the entertaining world of pickleball.  We will start with the development of a concept model to understand the terminology.  As we develop the vocabulary some business rules will naturally surface for capture.  Next we will look at the work flow, or as picklers know it – the game play.  Again lots of business rules to be captured to support the successful execution of a game. Tournaments can enhance a player’s experience by offering friendly competition.  Tournament organizers need player statistics to help organize play, so consistent capture of player statistics is key.  As part of our business model we will also look at the business rules around capture of player statistics. With the development of the business model everyone will have a solid understanding of the basics needed to play pickleball – all that will be left is for you to find a court and a few likeminded players!
