Pickleball is one of the fastest-growing sports in the nation and there is no indication that its popularity is going to wane anytime soon, writes Laura Brzyski for the Philadelphia Magazine.

The game which could be described as the lovechild of tennis and ping-pong is played using special paddles and a pickleball. Matches take place on a court that is around one-quarter the size of a tennis court.
