Today is your day Boomer! What are those ugly looking red things in the picture? Boomer tennis and pickleball players, those are RED low-pressure tennis balls....perfect for a new sport, a new sport that could challenge the incredible growth of pickleball. Yup, Tennis America is getting so concerned about the rise of pickleball that they have introduced a slower, smaller version of tennis! It is called "red ball tennis" and has been used with younger kids for quite awhile, but now it is being promoted for older adults.....like Boomers! According to Sport News, "it's the ideal way for people of all ages to get into tennis and the best place to try it is (wait for it) on pickleball courts." Yes, you can play on p-ball courts....which, by the way, are already pretty full but has less noise. It is also considered a stepping stone to play the bigger, faster normal game of tennis. Here is what one new player, Angelique, says about red tennis: "I have to say, I kind of like it better than pickleball; the ball is softer compared to the hard pickleball. The tennis racket has a softer feel. It's just easier to get into a rally. ... I'd definitely play it again." Oh...Boomers, sounds like it is worth a try. Cheers!
