Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in America. Invented in 1965 in Bainbridge Washington, it is a paddle ball sport that combines the best of tennis, ping pong, and badminton. The name of the game “Pickleball” purportedly came from the founder’s wife who shared that the newly invented game reminded her of the“Pickle Boat” in crew where oarsmen were chosen from the leftovers of other boats.

A Pickleball paddle is smaller than a tennis racquet but larger than a ping-pong paddle. Paddles are made from wood or lightweight composite materials. A Pickleball is a hard plastic ball with ~40 round holes, like a wiffle-ball.

USA Pickleball is the national governing body for the sport of pickleball and provides players with official rules, tournaments, rankings, and promotional materials.
