This is like two people have been shrunken and are playing table tennis while standing on the table...

Played for the first time yesterday. Really fun.

I'm a long-time tennis player (30+ years), just finding out about pickleball. Looks like a lot of fun. The only thing I'm confused about is the two-handed backhand. It's such a light ball + racket/paddle, plus you have more reach, range and flexibility with a one-handed backhand. Tennis players usually adopt a two-hander at a young age because it's easier to control the racket. But I don't get it for pickleball. Maybe they were tennis players before and it just feels more comfortable? Anyway, thanks for posting. I've gotta try this game.

The old school game with a pair of books and a ping pong ball taken to the whole new level.

Would love to see Nadal and kie have an exhibition match.

So, the people who complained about the tennis courts being too big and the ping pong tables too short got their own sport. Interesting

In the Caribbean we call it road tennis, which started in the 1930's as local people could not afford the tennis rackets and were not allowed to enter the local sports clubs they painted the the court in the roads and made the paddles out of wood. It is still played to thus day in schools and competition.
