Pickleball is one of the hottest new crazes in North Texas — even attracting the 2023 Pickleball National Championship to Farmers Branch later this year.
The sport shares similarities with tennis, table tennis, and badminton (as well as other paddle ball sports). It has official rules, regulations, and even its own organization — USA Pickleball Association.
