Pickleball

We started playing Pickleball a couple months ago. The game is a cross between tennis, badminton, and ping pong. It can be played by two or four players. It's played slowly by beginners who are just trying to keep the ball in the court. The game gets fast and furious when the players learn a few tricks about serving and volleying. The lines on this court are confusing because it doubles as a basketball court. Leisure World is building 8 new PB courts because of the gaining popularity of the sport. 
Boys against girls. Partnering with Tito will guarantee a win.

We mix it up a bit too.

After a few minutes of coaching, Doris was whacking the ball around like a pro.

A man can work up a mighty big thirst playing Pickleball.
