Pickleball is quickly becoming Hong Kong’s new favourite game, thanks to its welcoming community and growing social clubs. Perfect for all age groups, it offers an enjoyable way to spend an hour or two with friends or enjoy a quick workout.
This fast-growing racquet sport blends elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis. it is played with paddles and a perforated plastic ball on a court similar to badminton, while the game features a non-volley zone called the “kitchen” and is loved for being low-impact, easy to learn, and highly social.
Since pickleball is relatively new to Hong Kong, the territory only has a few dedicated courts. However, several venues offer spaces where you can play, especially by using badminton or tennis courts.
