QUOTE(loserguy @ May 16 2025, 10:22 PM) Think tennis, but using a plastic ball with holes so that the ball moves much slower. Change the racquets with oversized ping pong paddles but slow it down so that you can actually see the ball lol. You don't need to be Rafael Nadal or Ma Long to play. And I think 4 pickelball courts can fit into 1 tennis court. Quite fun actually. I only just started playing it a few weeks back, in addition to my weekly badminton sessions.

QUOTE(bengang15 @ May 17 2025, 10:16 AM) anywhere can play pickle ball around cheras area? the one near mine quite pricy 50/h. thought of doing it as regular weekend family activity That seems to be the going rate for non peak hours. I’ve seen some places in Penang asking for 70/h for evening bookings.

QUOTE(bengang15 @ May 17 2025, 12:34 PM) Har......out door or indoor? Mine rm50 weekdays rm58 weekend. Just court inside a condo Played at both. Outdoor courts tend to be cheaper, as expected. The outdoor one I went to recently was 40/hr on weekdays before 5pm. 55/hr after 5pm. 50-58 is a little pricey for a court in a condo, I feel.

QUOTE(thesoothsayer @ May 18 2025, 03:50 PM) I think 20+ years ago was 20 for 2 hours. 30+ years ago was 2/hr in Johor local council hall. It’s close to 40 for 2 hours at YMCA Penang now (non member price). Sunday rate.

QUOTE(Clueless07 @ May 22 2025, 12:47 PM) Seems like it is divided to 2 camps.... those like to play it, talks about it, brag about how expensive their bat is, how to spin the ball..... and those think it is a gay sports. Why not both?
