Pickleball FAQ in Lihue, HI

Do you have to stay out of the kitchen in pickleball?

Even if you successfully volley the ball to your opponent, you must stay out of the kitchen to avoid a fault. You can even fault on dead balls.

Do you have to be in shape to play pickleball?

Pickleball is typically played as doubles (with two teams of two), but can also be played one-to-one. The smaller court size makes pickleball easier on the body — there’s no need to cover a huge area on foot the way you may need to while playing tennis — so athletic prowess isn’t a prerequisite here.

What direction should pickleball courts face?

Pickleball Court Dimensions It is also important to note that if you are setting up an outdoor pickleball court on an existing court surface that is oriented in the normal north/south direction, do not place the pickleball courts at right angles to the court.

What is an Ernie?

The Erne is a shot where you hit the pickleball either (1) in the air as you are jumping around the Non-Volley Zone (also known as the Kitchen); or (2) after you run around or through the Kitchen and re-establish your feet out of bounds, just to the side of the Kitchen.

What are 3 benefits about playing pickleball?

While getting a great, agile workout, the movement of your paddle — and entire body — can tone your muscles and improve your balance.

Do you run a lot in pickleball?

Described as a mix between tennis, badminton and ping-pong, pickleball is very social. It’s also easy to learn and it doesn’t require a lot of running.

Can you step into the kitchen in pickleball?

You can jump and land in the kitchen in pickleball so long as you aren’t hitting the ball as a volley.

If the ball has bounced first, or you just feel like jumping in, this would not violate volley motion.

What is the cheapest way to build a pickleball court?
