spoken with the truth. you spend 200-300 for a paddle and hit a forehand that is slow as hell. This is one reason pickles will never be taken seriously. A teenage girl can beat men. Thats another reason. Shall I continue?@@goldenchildtheater
Would it change the whole game to have a paddle with a sound deadening surface on it? If all paddles were the same it would seem to me that the players would adapt and the incessant noise might be lessened a lot?
There are people who will complain about anything! These are the "Karens" of society! When I was a kid up north we played stick ball in the street. "Karen's" existed back then too. They said We were having too much fun and making noise. We had no park near by. So the neighborhood precinct put a cop car to watch us kids. The noise didn't go away, but the "Karens" did. As to the black wall, different Art work will improve the look. From Van Gogh to great graffiti, why not?
As a pickleball player, that's way less noise. Have you ever been to a park with like 8 courts going? It's horrible. Courts should be in areas where noise clearly won't be a problem.
@@ajchurchill Phoenix AZ figured it out literally dozens of courts in perfectly reasonable areas smart ass and if we can do it you might be able to do it to.
Quite. In gospel churches, the drummers often have a transparent screen between them and the audience, so there may well be something similar that could be used here. Can't be impossible to make
They choose to live opposite the park but don't want people to enjoy it. What's next? Karens opposite schools telling schoolkids to be silent at recess? Where does their miserable entitlement end?
Yep these people will move next to drag strips out in the middle of nowhere. They will complain about the noise and close the track down. Some people just have hate in their hearts.
Yes they chose to live opposite the park (presumably before pickleball had begun there) but then the increase in noise is an unpleasant addition that they hadn't signed up for. What if the noise was from gigs being played there in order to make money for the council, would they not have a right to complain about that either?
@@EmperorsNewWardrobe Poor neighborhoods have to deal with a lot worse. I find it very interesting how the poor people are supposed to move but entitled people with money get to control what the public is allowed to do around them.
@@JB77776 you’ve added a factor about poverty that was irrelevant to this discussion. Assuming the people living there moved in before they were pickleball courts, of course they’re going to complain about an unexpected new noise that they didn’t sign up for. Sure, changes in the park are a liability for anyone moving in, but if enough of those settled residents complain, the council might just do something. In that sense, it’s wise to complain if you don’t like disturbance!
@@EmperorsNewWardrobe I understand what you're saying but the pickleball is being played on existing tennis courts that have been there forever but weren't being used as much. Granted, pickleball is louder than tennis but it's not some crazy departure from what was there before. Public spaces are for the broader community, not just the immediate neighbors. Being close to the park is a privilege and comes with lots of positives. If someone only wants the good parts but none of the bad parts, and they want to deprive the community of a public space to enjoy an activity that gives them exercise and socialization, then in my mind they are being entitled and unreasonable. Same as if I got an exit row seat on an airplane and said "Thanks for the additional legroom but no thanks to learning how to operate the door".
Those "noise" barriers" don't have to be black. They can be decorative. More TREES in close proximity surrounding the court would also absorb the noise. This isn't that hard.
I can kind of understand being upset about the noise but at the same time... Living next to a park is an enormous privilege, and putting up with the sound of park goers playing sports is a small price to pay for getting to live in such a prized spot. Puritanism: the haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy ❤
Little much to invoke the word “rage“ in your description. No one in that report appeared to be raging about anything. #clickbaitisruiningpublicdiscourse
This isn't my personal hobby but this sounds all too familiar. You could make the court dead silent and that wouldn't be good enough. The people who complained simply want the courts gone because they are pathetic people.
@@qqq2307 So Dogs are loud 2. Should people be banned from walking their dogs in the park? Screaming kids are also loud. I guess no more kids are playing in the park. I am a disc golfer and yes people have a problem with us playing in areas nobody else uses. These people are just complaining because they want the world to burn.
You have no idea how fun it is. People are getting active and having a blast doing it. The average age of players is dropping rapidly as well. It's only a matter of time before high schools pick it up. Stay salty all you want but it's not going anywhere
As a once avid sports cross trainer that includes tennis and has three times played pickleball, neighbors complaints are valid. It's noisy as hell. Not to mention these obnoxious in your face neanderthals thinking they are suddenly John McEnroe bullying people and making up their own rules on who plays, has me wishing this stupid game goes away. In time the injuries will stack up and word will get around and it will go away. Tennis is the game but these people can't play tennis.
😂 you clearly have a very pathetic and unhealthy personality if you're seriously judging people over their hobby. If the courts are 2 crowded then they clearly need to make more and replace those tennis courts nobody uses.
I think pickleball is pretty neat. Yeah the noise is annoying but atleast it gets people outside. I really don't get how tennis players are so butthurt over pickleball and I play tennis myself.
We do not want the decibels reduced, we want the park GONE. It has increased traffic near our homes, and it's an eye sore to see a court with people. Crime could go up too. We need the entire thing removed.
The sight of the court is subjective. You’ve got no proof of increased crime as a function of a pickleball court. And in terms of increased traffic, we’d need objective data to validate your feelings. BTW, learned a long time ago that feelings are not facts. Come better prepared next time.

Karen's being Karen's on each other lol the irony
Beat me to it 🎉 NIMBYISM gone wild too.
😅😅
There would always be people who would complain always no matter what-it is in the nature
I would be so upset if people were truly enjoying the outdoors I would much rather hear gun shots
As usual not everyone can be happy and there is always people who complain no matter what.
Why don’t they just use tennis balls and tennis racquets?!
the voice of reason. Because 75 percent of pickleball players would get smoked in tennis. Don't have a 2nd serve, slow or overhit
Is this Arlington, VA or TX?
Similar debate going on, on the San Francisco Peninsula… though I can’t remember the name of the city.
I guess it’s because I play, but the sound of the paddle hitting the ball is a very pleasant sound
It's drip water torture when heard for hours and hours, day after day.
lmao...its sounds terrible. all that effort and ball goes 10 mph.

can we get a bicycle dirt jump park?? a skateboard park?? a cyclocross or mountain bike trail??
Funny enough, our town converted an old skateboard park into...you guessed it, pickleball courts.
Yes. Thank u. That will help the sound. & Neighbors
Imagine you live next to a park, with a FREAKIN BASKETBALL COURT, bouncing the ball a MILLION TIMES

@@sjp4565 and where is that exactly? An industrial park?
@@ajchurchill Phoenix AZ figured it out literally dozens of courts in perfectly reasonable areas smart ass and if we can do it you might be able to do it to.
A pickleball makes a much higher-pitched sound than a tennis ball makes. That is the problem.
Next step, get TF off our tennis courts and build your own courts! 😂
Hey they're having fun
Lol I'll put a stop to that.

Why dont they add transparent tarp
Quite. In gospel churches, the drummers often have a transparent screen between them and the audience, so there may well be something similar that could be used here. Can't be impossible to make
wh ydon't they build one in a cornfield away from everyone? that would be much much better

Better than the sounds of Basketball.

Pickleball is a solid wiffleball hitting a solid paddle. As someone who plays it, yes. Yes it's loud.

All that and it isn't even a sport. 🎣
I despise pickleball players because they take over everything. A tennis court is a TENNIS court. Make your own courts and leave tennis players alone.
Much like how stagnant pools of water are breeding grounds for mosquitoes, pickleball courts are becoming ground zero for Karens.
Can't wait for this fad to pass.
You don’t think ,do you?
You have no idea how fun it is. People are getting active and having a blast doing it. The average age of players is dropping rapidly as well. It's only a matter of time before high schools pick it up. Stay salty all you want but it's not going anywhere

This is like skiers vs snowboarders. In the end, these are sports. Get outside and enjoy it and stop worrying about “being cool.”

Lol, yeah I play pickleball here and afterwards do a bit of criming on the side
