SUMMARY:Kippford Pickleball
DESCRIPTION:Pickleball is a racket or paddle sport in which two players (singles) or four players (doubles) use a smooth-faced paddle to hit a perforated\, hollow plastic ball over a 34-inch-high (0.86 m) net until one side is unable to return the ball or commits a rule infraction. Pickleball is played indoors and outdoors. It was invented in 1965 as a children’s backyard game in the United States. Aspects of the sport resemble tennis and table tennis on a doubles badminton court\, but pickleball has specific scoring rules\, paddles and court lines. \nPlease note: Although every effort is made to ensure that the information given in this website is correct and up to date\, the Initiative cannot be held responsible for errors or omissions.
