USA Pickleball Association (USAPA) calls this sport “highly contagious” because it has taken the recreational world by storm. It is often described as a blend of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. The rules are simple and easy to grasp for those who are new to sports. Few of its health benefits are enhanced balance, agility, reflexes, and hand-eye coordination without imposing excessive physical strain. This is a wonderful alternative for older athletes who have physical limitations such as hip, shoulder, knee, or other joint problems. Moreover, the compact court size allows players to still engage in conversations, making it an excellent bonding activity for family and friends.
