About this listen
Discover why pickleball is America’s fastest-growing sport – start playing in just 5 minutes… all while forging close family bonds and building unforgettable memories!
Are you looking for an exciting game that your whole family can take part in – regardless of their age or fitness level?
Keen to play a ball sport that doesn’t require you to fork out hundreds on expensive equipment?
One that doesn’t take hours of lessons or put as much strain on your body as tennis and many other racquet sports do?
Then you may have already stumbled upon your ideal sport: pickleball.
Pickleball is a fast-paced sport that hones the quickness of your hand and your reflexes, but it has the added bonus of being strategic – which makes it a little bit like playing chess on a court!
Anyone can play it – even those who’ve never played tennis or picked up a paddle or racquet in their lives.
Because the court is much smaller than tennis courts, it’s ultra-sociable – you remain close to your opponents throughout the game.
And if you’ve always found sports like tennis to be too challenging… or to require too much running around… know that this limit doesn’t apply in pickleball.
Nothing’s stopping you but yourself – it’s time to get out there and play!
To get started, this book has all the information you need to play competitive, action-packed games with your family from Day One.
If you’re ready to spend quality time with your family while playing an exciting, sociable game, then scroll up and click “Add to Cart” now!

Excited to play
My friends have been talking about playing pickleball forever now. I played tennis in high school and I injured my knee in college... I have been nervous to play something that will twist my knee again. After reading this pickleball basics book, I realize that it's not that scary. I am very excited to take the newfound knowledge of the game and absence of fear to the court!

Unveiling the Heart of Pickleball!
Reflecting on my pickleball journey, akin to the obstacles discussed in Chapter 6, I vividly remember facing a challenging opponent with a knack for tricky serves. Recalling Stuart's advice, I embraced the learning process and turned those moments of frustration into opportunities for growth. Fast forward to today, those serves that once seemed insurmountable have become a thrilling aspect of the game, creating lasting memories of perseverance and triumph. Oldham's narration is like having a supportive coach by your side, cheering you on as you navigate the court and the intricacies of the game.

Easy to Understand
Pickleball Basics is the perfect audiobook for anyone looking to dive into this fun and accessible sport! As a 20-year-old college student, I loved how the book made learning the game so simple even if you've never held a paddle before. The tips on technique and strategy are great, and it's awesome how the sport can bring families and friends together. I enjoy playing but will like it so much more now that Ihave a better understanding of the rules.
