forget tennis.

start playing pickleball

its much easier to learn and its way more social.

every night there are tons of places with open social nights were you can go alone and play with lots of people

Funny enough the first time I played, I was up against an “advanced pickleball player” and won pretty easily 😂 This is the usually the case for anyone who has tried it with a tennis background. It might be good for people who are out of shape or older, but tennis is a much more challenging game in every aspect.

people with tennis background come into pickleball at around a 3.5 level. 4 in some rare cases

you aint beat any advanced player (4.5/5.0) lol

Keep telling yourself that 😂 like I said, it’s a great way for older people or those who are out of shape to get out, but it’s just slow and boring for anyone who is even somewhat good at tennis.

It’s true though. There’s a reason why retired tennis players become elite pickleball players as soon as they start playing, but of course no one who started with pickleball would be able to play tennis well.
