Pickleball is a fast-growing sport that combines elements of tennis, ping-pong and badminton and is played on a badminton-sized court.
The rules are simple and the game is easy for beginners to learn, but can develop into a quick, fast-paced, competitive game for experienced players. Matches can be played by singles or doubles like tennis. Learn more about Pickleball here. Equipment is provided by the Y.
