A Pickleball Primer

Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s and its popularity has grown quickly in recent years. It is a fun racquet sport that combines elements of badminton, tennis, and table tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles to hit a perforated ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports, the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules similar to tennis, with a few modifications.
