Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a perforated ball over a net, similar to a whiffle ball. A non-volley zone (or kitchen) prevents volleys close to the net, and the serving team cannot volley the return of serve. These unique rules favor players with less mobility and allow senior players to compete successfully with younger competitors.
Pickleball is enjoyed by people of all ages and athletic abilities thanks to its ease of play and straightforward rules. The sport is inexpensive, social, and healthy, and has been widely accepted in school gyms, fire stations, community centers, local parks, athletic clubs, and thousands of backyard sports courts.
Pickleball’s requirements are fairly minimal when it comes to equipment. Paddle faces are made of wood, composites, or graphite. Paddles are roughly 8” wide and 15” long with hard, smooth surfaces. Balls are made of hard plastic with holes similar in size to baseballs. The nets are 34” high in the center. Courts are 20 feet wide and 40’ long. Four pickleball courts can fit in the same area used for a single tennis court.
With its simple rules and low equipment requirements, Pickleball is the perfect way to stay active, socialize, and have a blast. From school gyms to backyard courts, this sport has found its way into countless hearts and communities.
