Hi all,

Saw a group of people playing at tennis courts and badminton halls, feel its less aggressive and fun.
Are there any existing pickleball players here?
I would like to find out more about pickleball and try playing.

Depends on session.
I just came back from watching pickleball at SS15.
I'd say 70% young fellas.

Found many groups to play liao.
SS15, USJ, Bangsar, Ampang Hilir, Ara Damansara, etc..
So much cheaper than playing badminton.. lol

I've played once and found myself struggling with reach as I'm too used to the length of a badminton racket compared to the short paddle. But no doubt very fun and friendly picklets, regardless of age.

I find it fun and addictive. I can play 3-4 times a week.
However there are those who play the game aggressively, as though they are playing tennis aka bangers.

Best way is to download Reclub app, then look for hosted sessions there.

Depends on location.
Currently popular venues is like NZX ara damansara, Dink It Kota Kemuning, PSC/KLGCC Hartamas, Satellite PJ, PickleJam, etc.
Can check rates and availability using AFA app.

If you wanna to try playing, can always look for Beginner friendly sessions on Reclub. Usually the hosts provide paddles for rent at RM5.
Best to not buy a paddle before you try playing a few sessions.

RM60/hr is quite expensive..



IIRC most of the dewan komuniti are about RM20-25/hr.
But you're right, some of the badminton courts are too near next to each other, so quite dangerous to play with people with bad footwork.
A lot of tennis courts are slowly converting to Pickleball courts..

Yes.. Especially at PSC, ESM courts..

Look here!!

Those who are playing, what paddles you guys using?

Good brand..
Prism or Flash?

Where do you play?

Penang players quite strong!!
that time met a group of uncles and aunties from Penang came play at Subang Jaya.

pickel ball event - anyone interested?

achong09 organising wei..

Where you guys play at?
I'm usually at Dink It, IWK Ecopark, PPR Sri Pantai, SS15 SJ.

Shall we organise a LYN pickleball session?

Juciao can spin just fine.. Just need the right technique..
Personally I use a 6.0 DBDI, I think the spin is too much. My returns spins before I even learn to return straight. lol

Anyone at PJ/SJ/OKR area interested to play?
If got enough pax, we can have a LYN Pickleball meet.

Currently I'm trying out Luzz Pickleball paddles.. !
I'd say better than Juciao in terms of power and spin.
Cheaper too!
Want discount code, PM me.. hhehehee

Luzz is a USA brand.. but probably made in china, like most paddles..

Luxx is one of Selkirk's range for high end paddles. You're right, mahal giler.. If you play hard and spin a lot, probably about 3 months, paddle need to be replaced liao..

My next Luzz paddle is one of these:

You want it to go up or down? 😁
DUPR is very easy to manipulate, so its not very dependable.
Noobs want to climb up quickly, buayas wanna bring it down so they can play in lower rating tournaments for easy win.
