The Basics of the sport: Pickleball is a highly addictive sport that combines many elements of tennis, badminton and ping-pong. It’s played both indoors or outdoors on a badminton-sized court and a slightly modified tennis net. It’s played with a paddle and a plastic ball that resembles a wiffleball. It can be played as both doubles and singles.
