Pickleball offers fun, friendship, better health | Health Smart

Pickleball has become the fastest growing sport among people of all ages. In this week's Health Smart report, we look at why it's more than just fun--it offers players several health benefits as well.
Pickleball has been around since 1965; however, the combination sport of tennis, ping-pong and badminton has really gained popularity in the last 5 - 10 years.
"It's evolving into the most popular sport in the country," said Ken Swalgin, president of the White Rose Pickleball Association, which was founded in 2017. "The way I look at it, it's a sport for the people. You know, if you wanna get out here and learn the game, we have clinics for you."
