[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Living in FL where pickleball is a BIG thing. It seems that people are all in and eventually burn out or get injured. There are MANY recovering pickleball players walking among us.
For me, I liked it years ago. The game is intended to be played at the net. It sharpened my reflex skills and required quick thinking. Now the game has morphed into baseline play, ground strokes (former tennis players) and the serve has been dumbed down to being able to bounce and serve. 
Another observation (and the main reason I no longer play) is that there is often times no social etiquette like there is in tennis. People will smack a ball at you and laugh. They celebrate their own wins and bad line calls are the norm. The upside is that the games are quick and you can move on and play with someone else.  [/quote]

That's FL not pickleball. FL is trash culture. [/quote]

Pickleball people in FL are from all over. I agree with thwack thwack being an odd attraction. It’s hard to sell a house near pickleball courts. The thwack speaks to the masses. [/quote]

I live between November and March in Brandenton FL, and I play everyday at G T Bray Recreation Complex:  https://www.pickleheads.com/courts/us/florida/bradenton/g-t-bray-recreation-complex

About half of the people there are under the age 30.[/quote]
