Pickleball - The Scourge of Pickleball

– don’t let your grandparents play pickleball

Are you an avid Pickleball player? Do you know someone who is?

What is Pickleball?

My descent into Pickleball Madness

Giving up on other social activities – volleyball, meetup, hikes – all to play pickleball.

I essentially joined a pickleball gang – fights with tennis players at parties, community issues, bullying kids at playgrounds

Spent money of Pickleball accessories- stories of how people spent their kid’s inheritances & college education funds on pickleball accessories. I bought expensive paddles and balls, portable nets, shoes, braces and elbow bands, I don’t need pickleball accessories or clothes

Injuries – my injuries, other injuries, people almost dying from pickleball

Pickleball Support Groups on Facebook, on MeetUp)

I have conquered my issues - I am only playing three days a week – no more double session days

No more buying expensive paddles and balls, portable nets, shoes, braces and elbow bands, I don’t need pickleball accessories or clothes

I am expanding my interests – into writing, into improv, re-starting my online magazine –

Yes, I am a recovering pickleball player – but I have it under control
