History of Pickleball
Pickleball was invented in 1965 by Joel Pritchard, 3-time U.S. badminton champion, Barney McCallum, and Bill Bell, all retired executives from the 3M Company. They were looking for a new game to play on their badminton court, which was too small for tennis. They combined elements of badminton, tennis, and table tennis to create a new game that was easy to learn and fun to play.
