Pickleball has become a popular sport around the world. It is exciting and fun. Played with a flat, tennis-like paddle and perforated balls since 1965, pickleball is a fun sport that has taken the world by storm. This game is great for getting out with friends and family to have fun and stay in shape.
Pickleball has become a popular sport for all ages. The sport is particularly popular among older adults and seniors who are looking for an activity to stay active, and it's a great social outlet as well.
Pickleball: Getting Started
In 1965, three neighbors in Bainbridge Island (Washington) invented the game to keep their children off the street on rainy days. The game was originally a Ping Pong paddle and ball version of badminton. However, it quickly evolved into an increasingly complex and competitive game.
Avoiding mistakes is an important part of picking up pickleball. There are many ways to make a mistake, and knowing how to avoid it can help you win games.
Pickleball: Faults and mistakes
The most common faults are hitting the ball on the wrong side of the net or not hitting it at all. Both errors can result in you losing a point, or the entire game. A fault can be given if you don't touch the ball when it lands in your opponent's court or doesn't bounce.
Playing too close to a line is another common mistake. If you're hitting or serving a volley, it's only acceptable to be a few feet away from the court line. If you're too near, your partner could hit a ball and score you a point if you don't return it.
Using Your Paddle In the Kitchen Zone
The kitchen zone (or "no-volley") is a 7-foot-wide space to either side of each net. This area is not allowed to be volleyed in, so if you're standing in the kitchen when you hit the ball, it's a fault!
