What’s special about pickleball – the sport billionaire Bill Gates has played for the past 50 years?

Pickleball, a sport with a field size and rules similar to tennis, rackets similar to table tennis, plastic balls similar to sepak takraw, is attracting attention in Vietnam. This is also the sport billionaire Bill Gates has played for the past 50 years.

Can be played indoors or outdoors

Pickleball was born in 1965 on Bainbridge Island, Washington (USA).

Thanks to the advertising effects from billionaireΒ Bill GatesΒ and the participation of the world’s top former tennis players, pickleball has become the world’s leading new fast-growing sport in the past 3 years.

This sport was introduced to Vietnam in 2018 but was not very popular at that time. However, in the last 6 months, pickleball has suddenly become a “phenomenon” and has gained rapid coverage, attracting thousands of players.

This is a sport that combines tennis, badminton and table tennis, suitable for Vietnamese people, who are dexterous and agile in small spaces.

Pickleball is easily accessible, so beginners of all ages, genders, and even those with minor injuries can switch to this sport.

Players will use a special racket to hit the ball with their opponent over the net. Pickleball can be played indoors or outdoors on a field the size of a badminton court, the net is placed close to the ground like tennis, and the court lines are divided into squares like table tennis.

Put on your shoes and hit the field to experience pickleball.

Need to prepare carefully before playing pickleball

Before playing pickleball, players need to prepare a specialized racket made of high-quality graphite fiberglass, designed as a flat surface, without using strings like badminton or tennis rackets. This type of racket is quite light, highly durable, helping players easily control the ball.

In addition to rackets, players need to buy perforated polymer plastic balls shaped like sepak takraw. The holes on the ball have the ability to create a lot of resistance, making the ball lighter and easier to hit.

Because pickleball can be played both indoors and outdoors, you only need to choose a space about 7m2 wide, with enough natural light, not obscured by obstacles. With a smaller size than traditional tennis courts, pickleball courts create a flexible and intimate playing space.

When playing pickleball, players can wear comfortable sports clothes and appropriate shoes to easily move on the field and avoid the risk of injury.

Last but not least, players also need to choose specialized shoes designed specifically for this sport.
