Pickleball Court FAQ in Essex, MD

Is wood or aluminum better for pickleball?

Wood paddle cores are generally the best option for pickleball beginners.

What does dink mean in pickleball?

A soft shot hit on a bounce from the NVZ intended to arc over the net and land within the opposing NVZ either straight across or diagonally crosscourt. An effective dink arcs downward as it crosses the net, creating a more difficult shot to return than a power shot.

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?

Orient your court north-south. Outdoor pickleball courts are exposed to mainly environmental elements that can obstruct players’ vision (position of the sun, shadows cast onto surface of court, etc), so it’s important to orient your pickleball court north-south.

Does a pickleball court add value to your home?

“It’s not going to add that much value no matter how popular it gets,” says Kelly. “But if you want one, at least put in a court that’ll allow for multiple sports like tennis and basketball.”

What ceiling height is needed for pickleball?

What is the Height Clearance for a Pickleball Court? Pickleball is played both inside and on outdoor pickleball courts. It is recommended that an indoor vertical height clearance of between 18- and 20-feet is maintained above the court.

What is the best court surface for pickleball?

Asphalt or Concrete both provide an acceptable base for pickleball courts. Make sure to review surfacing requirements before having the base installed, as there are recommended specifications for slope, drainage, and surface finish, and overall construction.

Is pickleball a good workout?

The peer-reviewed study, published in the Journal of Aging and Physical Activity, suggests that pickleball can provide a moderate workout for middle-aged or older people. But they would need to play as much as 4.5 hours a week to meet recommended exercise guidelines.

What is the most difficult thing to do in pickleball?

One of the hardest things to do in the sport of pickleball is to keep the pickleball low (while still over the net). A low pickleball will prevent your opponents from being able to go on the offensive with an aggressive shot.
