Created in the 1960s in Washington state, pickleball is best described as a combination of other sports, resulting in a hybrid sport that even couch potatoes can enjoy. The game is played on a badminton-sized court split by a net. Now, he competes in tournaments in different states, coaches in towns like Millis and senior centers, and is the pickleball coordinator at Kingsbury Club Medfield. And that makes the game a lot more fun.”If you've played tennis or racquetball ...“It’s not like tennis where you spend years serving and chasing the ball. You actually start hitting a pickleball over the net the first time you practice,” said Dennis Pollard, the coordinator of the Marlborough Ward Pickleball Steering committee.
