Have you tried Pickle Ball yet? Pickle ball has been growing in popularity for several years now. I think the first time I heard of it, we were living in Pittsburgh and saw it being advertised in local parks. I had no idea how pickles combined with sport, but as a pickle lover, I was all in. 😁
Saline has some nice pickle ball courts, and a new indoor court/club recently opened in Ann Arbor.
I really wanted to give it a try. I am always open to new ways to incorporate a little exercise into daily life. So Luke and I bought a starter kit and gave it a try.
It's a lot of fun! A smaller court than tennis, so not quite as much running. But still, you get a great cardio workout! The balls travel a little slower, too, and bounce a little differently. We definitely want to play a lot more. I may even convince Ed to join us!
We are still learning all the rules and scoring, and hoping to hit the courts again one day soon.
How fun! I've never tried it.
ReplyDeleteAt our last house we put in a pickle ball court 28 years ago. Our boys school taught it in PE which they played in the gym because of the rain. It's similar to playing ping pong, I think.
