Pickleball: A Lively Game For All Ages and Abilities
Whether you’re eight, eighty-five or somewhere in between, Pickleball is easy to learn and play!
Pickleball was created with one thing in mind: fun. The rules are simple and the game is easy for beginners to learn. Pickleball is something of a mix between tennis, racquetball and ping pong. Players use special paddles and a wiffle ball, and games take place on the court using temporary pickleball lines. The ball is served diagonally (starting with the right-hand service-square), and points can only be scored by the side that serves. It has its own set of quirky rules — for instance, try to stay out of the “kitchen”— but they’re easy to learn.
