This mini-tennis game called Pickle-ball was created during the summer of 1965 outside Seattle, WA.  The original purpose of the game was to provide a sport for the entire family.  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 Pickle-ball.  Initially, families played Pickle-ball in their backyards on a hard surface, on driveways, and on residential dead-end streets.  Since the mid-1970's, Pickle-ball has grown and expanded from a family activity game to a paddle court sport with formalized rules.  Popular with kids and adults of all ages, you will now see the game played at parks, recreation centers, camps, YMCA's and retirement communities.
