    Pickleball was invented in 1965 in Washington as a backyard game for families and has since grown into a popular paddle sport played around the world. The game was created to be fun for all ages and skill levels when Congressman Joel Pritchard, William Bell, and Barney McCallum developed it using a badminton court, a wiffleball, and ping pong paddles. Pickleball combines elements of tennis, badminton and ping pong and is played with a paddle and a plastic ball with holes over a net on a badminton-sized court.

    History of Pickleball
    Pickleball was created during the summer of 1965 on Bainbridge Island - a
    short ferry ride from Seattle, WA. The original purpose of the game was to
    provide a sport for the entire family, according to co-inventors U.S.
    Congressman Joel Pritchard, William Bell, and Barney McCallum.

    Pickles was the family dog that would chase after the errant balls and then
    hide in the bushes, thus Pickle's ball which was later shortened to the
    namesake of Pickleball.

    Initially, families played Pickleball in their backyards on a hard surface, on


    driveways, and on residential dead-end streets.

    Since the mid-1970's, Pickleball has grown and expanded from a family
    activity game to a paddle court sport with formalized rules. Now, over 20
    years later, Pickleball is played in thousands of school P.E. programs, parks
    and recreation centers, correctional facilities, camps, YMCAs and retirement
    communities. This sport is becoming very popular among active senior adults
    at community centers and is growing in popularity on high school and college
    campuses.
