Unstoppable Pickleball

Pickleball statistics - the numbers behind America's fastest growing sport in 2024.

Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in America for the third year running. The sport, which is a cross between table tennis, badminton, and tennis, was invented by three vacationers on Bainbridge Island, near Seattle, in 1965.

Pickleball is easy to learn how to play and can be enjoyed well into one’s later years, making it a popular sport among seniors.
