The Ultimate Pickleball Keepsake
From a dink shot to the kitchen, everything a pickleballer needs to know is in this fully illustrated guide to the world's greatest recreational sport, packed with lots of joy, good humor, and even a little bit of wisdom.
Why Pickleball?
Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in America. Easy to learn, but impossible to master, it's no wonder that nearly 5 million people nationwide have picked up their paddles and taken to the court. But people aren't just dabbling in this up-and-coming activity, they are obsessed; some hit the court as many as five, six, even seven times a week. As Vanity Fair put it, pickleball has won over everyone, from Leonardo DiCaprio to your grandparents.

Also included are interviews with members of the three founding families from Bainbridge Island who are still very much involved in the sport and its growth.
