"We started Dill Dinkers because of our unwavering passion for the sport and the community it has provided us,” said Co-Founder and CEO Will Richards. “As a former Dominos multi-unit franchisee, it was crucial for us to build a strong network of support ahead of our franchising launch, and we are thrilled to welcome operators like Lori and Scott who are just as passionate about spreading the joy of pickleball. We look forward to seeing how they extend our name in Winston-Salem.”
