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.

@@mclovin2155you think hating on people for playing a sport that they enjoy is justified 🤣 people say that its just for retired people but I’m 15 and enjoy playing it. Just because it’s not as difficult to learn and get good at as other sports doesn’t mean people can’t enjoy it without people hating on them
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

@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.

@@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…….

Once you hit a certain age you realize that if someoje is skilled at something you show respect. Even if its not your thing.

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.
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.
Tennis & Pickleball are completely two different things, even though Pickleball is a combination of Tennis, Badminton & Ping Pong, but a lot of people play both Tennis & Pickleball, I play and I teach both, and I’m still good
