Is Pickleball a Threat to Tennis?
During a five-year span, from 2016 to 2021, Pickleball participation in the USA nearly doubled from 2.5million to 4.8million.
The upshots of the sport are clear to see: it's a shorter game with a more straightforward scoring system than tennis; the courts take up less room – you can fit four pickleball courts in one tennis court; it can be played indoors or outdoors, it's a social activity and, while great exercise, it's not as physically demanding as tennis.
Given the recent investment in the sport – often at the expense of traditional tennis courts - some view the growth of pickleball as a major threat to tennis. But are they right to do so? And is there anything tennis should seek to learn from its innovative racquet-sport brother?
