Its unfortunate that this story made this seem like an old persons sport. It actually started as a young kids sport. Teenagers and millennials play as much as 60 somethings. Our courts are filled with teenagers playing PB.

I've lost an eye to Cancer and I can't wait to get back to Pickleball..
"Kitchen" = Non-Volley Zone. People who are trying to explain the sport, need to explain the concept of this critical part of the game like no volleying, dinking, Ernies...
0:11 Look at that awesome footwork you need to be successful at the game.
Why it's gaining popularity? How about, It's far easier to play, It's not as taxing on the body, It uses so much less space, and It's fun.
love to see it!! 🥳
I’m interested to see it mainstream. Senior and juvenile games for the undercard matches on TV, then followed up with the top players as main events.

Big investors are behind the pickleball marketing madness. It is tennis for people who aren't fit enough to play tennis or don't want to put in the work and time to learn tennis. If people like it then good for them but please build separate courts instead of interfering with tennis courts.

I play tennis and pickleball and i understand your point however the tennis courts in my area aren’t being used very often and I see the transition of the courts over to pickleball. It really is about demand. If it gets more of the community to be active I think it should be supported.
“Hey man, wanna go out for a couple cold ones?” No, got pickleball at 5:30. It’s pretty serious.”
Way too many people playing and not enough public courts… there I said it…
Not much people talk about this. We need a movie about pickle ball

Eventually, they will need to make a slightly bigger court. Pickleball as it currently plays is nothing less than a senior activity on a cruise ship…very little running and athleticism involved which limits the broad long term appeal as a sport. The problem with tennis is that there is too much running…the problem with Pickleball is that there is no running involved…

Have you watched the pros play or played against athletic players? It's a small space but if you are athletic, you go for balls the seniors can't/won't go for. It's a lot of sudden sprinting in multiple directions. I wore my fit watch and tracked 6,500 steps per hour of pickleball vs, just under 4,000 steps per hour of community volleyball.
I don't understand why everyone feels they have to either love or hate the game. I don't love it but it's okay once in awhile. It doesn't give me enough of a rush to ever be my primary sport but plenty of players of more athletic sports treat themselves to a bowling or pool night on their rest days to do something fun to mix it up. Pickleball is no different. Do you guys (whom this applies to) think you're sharing groundbreaking information when you enlighten us on how it doesn't require as much athleticism as tennis? Nobody is trying to convince you that is does, and the dimensions of the court are already letting you know that it doesn't. That being said, every sport has its levels of competition, any sport can be a senior citizen game when senior citizens decide to play it together, and any sport can be less physically demanding when people decide to play doubles instead of singles and cut the running in half. If any of us ever have the experience of Ben Johns alone on the other side of the net, I'm sure the sport won't feel anywhere near as un-intense as this video leads some of you to believe.
Because they can't play tennis, and never could. This looks boring.

A Onipotência do SENHOR JESUS CRISTO Vivo; ELE Mata, e Faz Viver, ELE Fere, e ELE Sara, e as Suas Mãos Curam; é o que nos Revela o ESPÍRITO SANTO de DEUS Vivo em Nome do SENHOR JESUS CRISTO *** Palavra da Boca de DEUS Vivo em Nome do SENHOR JESUS CRISTO com o ESPÍRITO SANTO escritas nas Escrituras Sagradas:- Deuteronômio 32:39. - I Samuel 2:6. - Jó 5:18. - Isaías 38:16. - Jeremias 17:14. - Jeremias 33:6. - Mateus 12:22. - 19:2. - Lucas 4:18-19. - 6:18-19. - "Vede AGORA que EU, EU o Sou, e mais Nenhum DEUS Comigo; EU Mato, e EU Faço Viver; EU Firo, e EU Saro; e Ninguém há que Escape da Minha Mão. O SENHOR é o que Tira a Vida e a dá Faz Descer à Sepultura e Faz tornar a Subir dela. Porque ELE Faz a Chaga, e ELE mesmo a Liga; ELE Fere, e as Suas Mãos Curam. SENHOR, com estas Coisas se Vive, e em Todas elas está a Vida do meu espírito; portanto, Cura-me e Faze-me Viver. Sara-me, SENHOR, e Sararei: Salva-me, e Serei Salvo; porque Tu És o meu Louvor. Eis que EU Farei Vir sobre ela Saúde e Cura, e os Sararei; e Lhes Manifestarei Abundância de Paz e de Verdade. Trouxeram-lhe então um Endemoninhado Cego e Mudo; e, de tal modo o Curou, que o Cego e Mudo falava e via. E Seguiram-no muitas gentes e Curou-as ali. O ESPÍRITO do SENHOR é sobre MIM, pois que me Ungiu para Evangelizar os Pobres, Enviou-me a Curar os quebrantados do coração, A Apregoar Liberdade aos Cativos e dar Vista aos Cegos; a por em Liberdade os Oprimidos; e Anunciar o ano Aceitável do SENHOR. Os quais tinham Vindo para o Ouvir, e serem Curados das suas Enfermidades, como Também os Atormentados dos espíritos Imundos: e eram Curados. E Toda a Multidão procuravam Tocar-lhe; porque Saía DELE Virtude, e Curava a Todos." ,,,
