Having been both a tennis and badminton player, I think this looks like an amazingly cross generation friendly game that's not too hard on the body. Can't wait to give it a crack 😊
This is an excellent, concise video for people who want to start pickleball. It only covers intro beginner material. I appreciate the overhead diagrams.
@@imstillrogueit really doesn’t, played tennis for years and only 6 months into pickleball and I’m a 5.0 league player. The game is braindead compared to tennis. Granted it helps that I’m in my 20’s
@@SHLOWE Braindead may be fair, but I think its more that it doesn't require a high level of athleticism to have a good time. Maybe akin to Mario Cart with its blue shells and other silly fun mechanics vs a serious racing game. Neither are inherently better, but one definitely isn't as competitive if that's your priority
My friend invited me to a pickle ball social event, which sounded fun. We just learned two days ago that it’s a King/Queen of the court style tournament and I’ve literally never played ever 😂 watching as my first time stepping on the court will be a tournament! Very informative and I like that the video was short & well explained/demonstrative. Thanks!
technically it already had that same growth a long time before your "sport" did...so....ok....i guess you just wanted to talk about you and your "invention"....
I played for the first time last week. Not sure how I feel about it. I can see its appeal since it is very easy to pick up or at least easier than other “racquet” sports. As a tennis player, I really had to adjust my swing and realize the technique is not the same at all. You need quick reflexes and and you do get a workout due to the fast nature. However, it does somewhat feel like what we would call “baby tennis” which is what beginners would play to get used to getting the ball over the net. It is a very democratic sport so I can see its wide appeal. I will play a few more times to see. I will also say the scoring is not easily understandable. It also is very close to touch tennis which is tennis played on a court about 1/3 the size of a regular court with smaller racquets and different balls but similar scoring system. The community that plays this sport IS supper passionate which is generally a good thing.
it just seems like a weird hodgepodge of ping-pong and tennis, without the excitement of bigger moves that you have in tennis or the finesse of table tennis.
Just played it for the first time today and i had a blast. It was 2v2 and we played a couple of games to best of 3. I’m a ping pong guy and thought this game was like a larger version. I liked the fast paced play and the movements. I can further understand why it’s the fastest growing sport right now. It’s addicting.
Then you have defied physics and broken the world speed record for projecting a pickleball by human force (and you break your opponents sternum, but win the volley).
I like the idea that some of the aggressiveness inherent say in tennis is mollified since I am more interested in exercise, not competition. Do others, especially seniors, see that as the case?
@@goutfromfriedokra3936 grammar* -- but either way, this would be an example of vocabulary, not grammar. "Mollify - reduce the severity of (something); soften."
@@bartholomewhunt1874and i always thought tennis was for ppl over 70😂 I went from being a sponsored skateboarder, then green beret, and now pickleball is my choice of physical activity 😂 Mostly cuz i have a wife and kid and its a not so intensive, yet still active, activity. Plus i guess im gettin old😂
The one thing you didn't mention in this video is when team B is returning the ball off the serve, can the ball land in the kitchen on team A's side or is it out if it lands in the kitchen area on the return bounce?
Great Tutorial! one question i have is: on a Serve it it touches the net and bounces in legal area is it still in play or a let? i see different answers to this?
If the ball is clearly going to land in the kitchen, can you step in the kitchen BEFORE the ball lands and hit it AFTER it bounces? Or do you have to wait until it bounces in the kitchen until you can step into it?
Nice vid! My husband and I played very unofficially and totally wrong hahaha, but it was just to try it out. But I want to play it regularly so hence me watching this video lol
And whatever happened to "Platform Tennis"? It was sort of cold weather tennis offshoot that used a smaller ball and paddles. About 40 years ago. Ive never heard it mentioned since. I just Googled it and found it was invented in 1928 (what?). Played on a wooden raised court so heating element could be installed (what?). Also similar to racketball in that the ball could be played off of the screening enclosure.
nice video, good explanation, but what are ALL the rules to this game? And someone please let me know if u can. My teachers making me watch this for school. :/
Double Bounce rule? You can just smack a return to the volleyer's side and they'll be helpless. Aim for the service box behind the volleyer and they'll be forced to back up.
Join Facebook Pickleball Forum and go to files. I have created a pdf to teach where to stand. It helps with scoring when you know where to stand for serves
Question: a player is allowed to strike from or in the kitchen IF the ball has struck once before this during the game inside the kitchen? For instance say opposite side hits ball and 2:02 ball bounces in thekitchen on opposite side of the net. Is the rule for just that one strike or is it thereafter the opposite side may enter the kitchen on that side? And if so is the other team not allowed into the kitchen until a ball bounces in their kitchen? Thanks to anyone who will clarify.
Who's here from Malaysia? And every single group of your friends are starting this sport so you're peer pressured in a positive way to know the rules of this game 😌😌
Not here because of a gym class. I watched because a co-worker asked if I play pickleball and invited me to join her and her husband to play. I’d heard of pickleball, but never seen it played.
I am so grateful that some very nice people taught me how to play pickle ball the surprising thing was that I'm trying to get in shape now I got Nother fun thing to do to get more healthy amen maybe this next 🏊
I’ve just watched some introductions to this sport and it seems like a really confusing mix of tennis, table tennis and badminton with some other random rules 😂
Cure my curiosity everyone: My wife and I got a starter kit of paddles and balls, but we'll absolutely upgrade our gear if we start making this a regular part of our lives. What is everyone's favorite go-to paddle brand or specific paddle? Likewise, what are the best balls to buy?
i don't know why but, why i m remembering pingpong and lawn tennis . i played the same pickle ball rule on ping pong with my friends. 4 players can also play the same method on ping pong , and i think it this method can also be played on lawn tennis
My grandfather plays it a bunch and invited my dad and me and my brother to play and he bought us the paddles so i needed to know how to play lol. Very good video
Must service behind baseline Cannot serve into kitchen Must bounce once in each side when passing, first round, then can volley Cannot let ball bounce twice on one side Obviously if hit net other team serves and their point
serves don't have to be underhand, they just can't be above waist level. You're allowed to serve a forehand shot if you don't bounce, spin, or throw the ball up.

Pickleball reminds me of a cross between tennis and ping-pong.

Prob cause at the time no one else knew how to play lmao
What happens if you fire the ball at 120 mph into the chest of your opponent?
Hard to do that with underhand serves
@@jacobwilliams5271 Every shot is underhanded?...I see people in the video hitting at angles that are not underhanded.
Then you have defied physics and broken the world speed record for projecting a pickleball by human force (and you break your opponents sternum, but win the volley).
"To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women."
as long as the ball does not bounce on the ground twice after hitting the chest, your opponent may return the serve back into your face.
I like the idea that some of the aggressiveness inherent say in tennis is mollified since I am more interested in exercise, not competition. Do others, especially seniors, see that as the case?
yes!
Like any sport... some people are laid back, some people are super-competitive.
what is mollify mean? u try impress us with your grammer
Man getcho old ass…

Going to play pickleball for the first time today 😝😝

I'm in Australia, this seems like a P.E 'gym class' activity. I'd like to play this
thanks P.E class, very helpful information for my future life.
This is very helpful but what about serve order and scoring?
Ummm…YEAH! Hilarious to call this a “Definitive Beginner’s Resource to How to Play” WITHOUT mentioning how to keep score. 😂
Good info. Aldi has pickleball sets on sale. Figured I would see what its about before buying.
Lmao here for gym
this actually seems fun
Who’s here from gym class?
yes
Love wailing on people by stepping back since they don’t have good volleys.

Lmao me rn 😭

I can't wait to play for the first time! Thanks for the video.
Concise explanation. Very helpful
If the ball is clearly going to land in the kitchen, can you step in the kitchen BEFORE the ball lands and hit it AFTER it bounces?
Or do you have to wait until it bounces in the kitchen until you can step into it?
This is waaay better than the longer video i just watched from the federation of pickles or whatever. I kinda get it now.....

Dj PixelFreak same it sucks i didn’t even right down anything lol
the shot by red at 12 seconds looked like it had some nice back spin on it.
So it's pingpong standing on the table
I can see why it’s becoming so popular. It’s similar to tennis without being so physically demanding.
99% of comments: I'm here because of gym
No one:
Not even COVID:
1% of comments: Wow Wow Wubbzy
after first volley aim for the opponents face, if the dodge it should still land in fair territory and you get the serve.
🤣 Jesus Crust
This video helped me understand this so much more
Oh so finally tennis and ping pong had a baby. 👶 Pickleball.
great instructional video , really good
Double Bounce rule? You can just smack a return to the volleyer's side and they'll be helpless. Aim for the service box behind the volleyer and they'll be forced to back up.
There is no volleyer on the return of serve.Both players on the serving team should be at the baseline.
When u watch gym videos like these for school and u played and it hurt your shoulder 😙 gotta love gym tests
I feel like we’re all here cuz of school
we are
Ahhhhhhhhhhhgggghhg
Yeah
we are
We are
Why did you not address how to keep score?
You have to go to another link about it at their website.

serve underhand you say?
Thank you this saved me some score in PE
Pretty sure you can do drop serves too where you drop the ball, let it bounce and then it can be hit
i don't know why but, why i m remembering pingpong and lawn tennis . i played the same pickle ball rule on ping pong with my friends. 4 players can also play the same method on ping pong , and i think it this method can also be played on lawn tennis

I need to give this a try...

Are the rules to take the aggression out of the game?

Is it against the rules to hit the ball hard? Seems like they are just passing it back and forth without power like in tennis
