Great book on Pickleball

Pickleball Made Simple is a useful book to learn pickleball. Pickleball is not as simple as it looks from the sidelines. The rules are plentiful. Pickleball is a cross between badminton and tennis, however, the rules are unique. There are dozens of special shots that require thinking ahead. After watching your oponnant's positon on the court and figuring out what his nest move might be, you decide what shot you want to make. Points are only scored when you are the server. A winning game must be 2 points more than your opponent. The kitchen is an off limits place on the court. The ball must bounce on both sides of the court before a point can be made. A dink appears to be the main scoring technique. Mastering the technique of the dink takes time. Although the game sounds fun, you must be in decent physical condition to play since there is a lot of running back and forth to be in the right position to return the ball. Pickleball is the most popular sport at this time. It is addicting. Everyone I know who has tried it, plays every spare hour they have or got hurt playing and they were forced to stop. I highly recommend buying this book. It is well written and easy to understand.

Great exercise instructions!
