[quote=Anonymous]I play both pickleball and tennis. Any tennis player starts pickleball way ahead of the learning curve (which is not that long) from non-tennis players. It's an advantage to know the footwork and how to set yourself up for things like volleys and overheads. So far, the only way pickleball has interfered in my tennis game is that it takes some time for me to re-orient my distance from the ball. After playing a lot of PB, I find that I get way to close to the ball when I switch to tennis. I'm a life long 4.0 tennis player and I actually think pickleball is a real sport and does take some skill. Glad to see it's now a MCPS sport. I will encourage my DS, who is on the tennis team, to play. [/quote]
