The sport that blends elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis is swiftly gaining popularity in India. For the unversed, pickleball is a racket or paddle sport that combines all three sports mentioned above. It is played on a badminton-sized court with a net but involves less running than tennis. The sport, which can be enjoyed as doubles (two players per team) or singles, is played with a hard paddle and perforated plastic balls. For first-time readers and those who have already picked up a love for this sport, here are some pickleball venues in Mumbai for you to check out.
