Pickleball is a fun sport for all ages and all levels of athletic ability. It is played by two or four players on a badminton-size court, with a slightly modified tennis net, using perforated plastic ball and wood or composite paddles. Pickleball is easy for beginners to learn and play, but can develop into a fast-paced, competitive game for experienced players.
