Some sports just seem to pop up out of nowhere. You never hear about them, and then suddenly, they're all over the place. Pickleball? That name alone sounds made up! I had never heard of it, yet a quick search pulls up countless videos of people playing.
From what I've gathered, it's like a mash-up of tennis, badminton, and ping pong. The concept is to hit a small ball to your opponent and try to outscore them. I wouldn't mind giving it a shot, just to see what the hype is about. It could be the sport I was meant to excel at my whole life.
For anyone else curious enough to try, especially with the holidays coming up, The Cedar Mall in Nanyuki has Pickleball games on the rooftop every weekend from 10 AM to 6 PM. The best part? It only costs KSh 400 per day, and you can play as long as you want! Kids and parents alike are welcome, making it a great family activity. Plus, learning a sport that not many people know about? What a flex.
Might as well add Pickleball Pro to the resume, right? For more information, call 0737070746.
