What is Pickleball?
Pickleball is a fast-paced, yet easy-to-learn sport. Using paddles and a lightweight plastic ball, players hit the ball over a net, aiming to land it on their opponent’s side of the court.
Pickleball is played on a badminton court with a low net, and you strike a plastic whiffle ball with a paddle (which is similar to a table tennis bat, but bigger) and play in a way similar to 'doubles' tennis.
The game can be played in both singles and doubles formats.
