What is Pickleball?

Pickleball is a racquet sport that combines some of the characteristics of table tennis, tennis and badminton. Pickleball is a sport that was invented in the mid-1960's and has grown in popularity over the past decade. The game can be played with two, three or four players who each hold a paddle made of composite materials or wood. As in many racquet sports, the paddles are used to hit a perforated ball, similar to a wiffle ball over a net.
