Pickleball

Pickleball is a rapidly growing paddle sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and ping pong creating a fun and engaging activity that’s easy to learn and play

Played on a smaller court with a low net, the game is accessible to people of all ages and skill levels.

Participants use solid paddles to hit a perforated plastic ball back and forth, aiming to score points by landing the ball in the opponent's court. The sport's popularity is attributed to its simplicity, social appeal, and the ability to provide both a competitive and recreational experience. Whether played indoors or outdoors, Pickleball has become a favorite pastime for many individuals and communities, fostering camaraderie and promoting an active lifestyle.
