COURTESY OF MYRNA LUECK Beverly Chaidez, left, practices pickleball in the sport wheelchair she was loaned by the Utah Tennis Association. Chaidez, recovering from treatment for multiple sclerosis, is training for her first tournament. Continued from B-1 FR EE $50 A player’s Pickleball recovery Egyptian Theatre Gift Card and a week after that she registered for Pickleball for Heroes. “Before the wheelchair she was very competitive,” said Mark Mollner, her friend and mixed doubles partner in the Pickleball for Heroes tournament, who is able bodied. “She had a good forehand, she was quick, but as the MS started to take hold her game started to diminish, but she was still as energetic as she could be and really showed a lot of tenacity in trying to keep up with the group.” She originally registered for the tournament thinking it was specifically for people in wheelchairs – the main image on the website is of a person playing pickleball in a wheelchair. It turned out only three people in wheelchairs have registered for the competition, but Chaidez is still intent on going. In addition to competing in mixed doubles, Chaidez will compete alongside her sister in the women’s doubles. Offer for new, in-county, print, two-year subscribers. Available while supplies last!

Recognized for outstanding wealth management Recovery and training In the time since her treatment, Chaidez and Lueck said the local pickleball community has been extremely supportive. “Three times a week somebody brings us a meal,” Chaidez said. People have also volunteered to help the athlete move her equipment, including her chair, in and out of the car. There was also the time when one pickler helped fix the water softener at her house. “We hardly knew him,” Lueck said of the helpful acqaintance. “We were having a problem with the water softener and he came over and (fixed it).” Another time, someone from the pickleball community fixed her sprinkler system. “(Chaidez) has such a small lawn that she couldn’t get a landscaper to take a look at it,” Lueck explained. “(A friend) spent a couple hours fixing it.” The pickleball players volunteer to help her practice, like last Wednesday at Willow Creek, when Bob and Mary Whelan took the court against Chaidez and Lueck. To warm up, the teams only played in the two seven-foot “kitchens” of the court, where no volleying is allowed. When Bob hit a ball through Beverly’s corner, she was unable to reach it. “Sorry Bev,” Whelan said. Chaidez told him not to be sorry — her opponents at the tournament wouldn’t be. But that didn’t keep Lueck from ribbing him. “You meanie!” She said, playfully. Over the course of an hour – her second day in the sports chair – Chaidez found some of her strengths and weaknesses. Its stability is one of its most immediate advantages, allowing her to play more confidently without worrying about tipping over. She can also turn much faster. Returning serves is still an issue, since her lateral movement is limited, and it’s hard to dig shots out from directly in front of or at the chair. Chaidez is confident she can find ways to mitigate those challenges before heading to Arvada at the end of the month. “I’m going to figure it out,” she said. “I don’t have much time.” Even if she doesn’t become a flawless wheelchair pickleball player, that’s OK, Chaidez said. Her hope is that she will be playing on her feet again within the next four or five months, after her body has recovered from her treatment. For now, though, she’s focused on making the best of her situation. “I fully intend to be on the medal stand,” she said. “No pressure.” INTERMOUNTAIN MORTGAGE COMPANY 2018 (And pretty decent selfies) The Mogul Financial Group and UBS are proud to congratulate Glen Mintz for being recognized by Barron’s.

We were on a tight deadline and they worked all angles to find the best loan for us. In such a complicated process they made it easy, quick and stress free. We had a great experience with Intermountain Mortgage Co! Everyone we dealt with was very professional and helpful. We were moving from the East Coast to Utah which created some challenges but the staff here handled everything very efficiently. I would highly recommend doing business with them!
