Pickleball is a fast-growing paddle sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis. Played on a smaller court with a lower net, it's accessible to people of all ages and skill levels. Players use solid paddles to hit a perforated plastic ball over the net, aiming to score points by landing the ball within the boundaries of the opposing side. The game can be played in singles or doubles and is known for its quick pace, strategy, and friendly atmosphere.
