I love love love playing pickleball. It is sooooo addictive. My group of friends played tennis together for more than 18 years has all switched over to playing pickleball now. We used to play tennis twice a week, but now are playing PickleBall 3-4 times. Can't wait to play again tomorrow...
Play 3 times a week. I play many sports, basketball, volleyball, tennis, cricket etc Pickleball is like democracy. These are the rules and it gives even a 60 yr old chanceto beat a 30 yr old. Games are to have fun and socialize to begin with.
Pickleball is so huge now and I don't think it is a gimmick. With tennis, I play 1vs1 and one needs to do lot of running around. Speed, cardio and agility are my strengths so tennis is more appealing to me. With pickleball, it seems more to be played 2vs2 and you don't need to run around a lot like tennis. People who maybe older, lack mobility/speed or have knee issues maybe more appealed to pickleball. Tennis is my favorite but I also have 4 pickleball paddles, portable pickleball net and also a ping pong table.
Try playing singles homie, doubles is more based on strategy finesse and teamwork which is why its a great sport for older people but try singles with someone good and I promise you will find there is a lot of court to cover and being a tennis player will make it fun because you already have the athleticism, shot selection and court awareness needed for it.
Im good bro. That game has zero skill. I have played singles and it sucks. GAME HAS LITERALLY NO SKILL. dont even reply bruh. I HATE you guys. You take up courts for a real sport. you dont respect the game AT ALL. @@evannatteford1784
Uhhh... this kid did't play tennis hilariously enough. He was more Baseball than anything (and other sports in the background), but never spent much time on any of them until he picked up Pickleball. From what his father & I spoke about, kid was just a natural athlete in most that he played. He'll go far and make it Pro Wise. When.... I wanna say probably in 2-3 years haha

All these posts are probably high school or college kids whos balls havent dropped yet
I rewatched that part and I think he says “how did he hit that” referring to the fact he ran back on the lob and had a really good reset shot into the kitchen preventing the other team from scoring off an overhead shot
@@brianfoley2410unfortunately I don’t think that’s what he meant, ALTHOUGH you’re definitely right , the kid hit a great defensive shot but the guy literally just seemed perplexed that he ran down a lob…….
I'm planning to play pickleball,instead of tennis right now, because in our place, we had only basketball court, that we can turn into pickleball court soon.
Issue with Tennis is it's high entry barrier. To play modest level of tennis, you need 10 times or more dedication and time than PB. So for those who invested in tennis and very good at it, stick with tennis. You wont get that same mental satisfaction. But for a lot of us, PB gives an easy ramp to have some fun.
Играл в такую игру в 1985 году и далее года три. Очень увлекательная игра. Мы играли паролоновым мячем. Мастером большого шлема становишься через месяц. Рекомендую
Except that, no, that isn't how it works. I've played tennis for years. Ping pong, too. Pickleball is similar to both but requires an entirely different set of skills. And the game will run you ragged. Play for a month and see if it's as easy as you think.
I can already hear the womp womps and get a life or something like that but I get pissed that people say pickleball is not a real sport and its for old people in my opinion i think its very fun
@tuannguyen3870 I am with you there. I've played every sport. If it had a ball, a racket, a mitt, I was on the court or field. I'm addicted to pickleball and have never had this much fun in a sport. I went to play yesterday and the county rec club changed the schedule, so no pickleball at that time this month. I wish a dedicated center would come here.
People that are hating on this sport are people who havent tried pickleball. Ive been playing badminton all my life and i think pickleball is such a fun sports to play.
I play all three, and your comment is ridiculous. They're different sports but all good. Why you feel like you need to put down this sport is beyond me. It's fun, it's social, lots of pro athletes love it (including pro tennis players).

Kid in the blue shirt literally dropped the ball in the kitchen while running the other way. That was a really amazing shot. Both of them had great shots and gets. Adults on the other side missed some pretty big opportunities, but also played pretty well. Tennis clowns in here hating. PB is easy to pick up, but hard to be a high level. Most never get past a 3.5 from my experience. You do have to be athletic and very quick to get to a high level. If you think its easy to be good, you haven't played good players... period.
The kid in the blue stepped in the kitchen. Isnt he suppose to avoid that area until after hes made contact with the ball. Im a noob this is a genuine question. This game seems pretty fun
90% of pickleball players came from tennis. So go figure out why.
Because they suck at tennis...
Me too.
No way. 90% of tennis players look down on pickleballers
