Pickleball Equipment

Pickleball courts require only a net and either permanent or temporary boundary marker. Portable, free-standing Pickleball nets are often used to allow indoor play in gymnasiums. Pickleball players use a solid paddle similar to a large ping pong paddle to hit the ball. Paddles cost from $60 to $150 USD and usually weigh about 7.5 ounces. The smaller court and lighter paddle make Pickleball popular with tennis players seeking a similar but less demanding game. Indoor and outdoor Pickleball equipment and play is similar, but indoor and outdoor balls are different. For more information visit Amazon.com.mx.
