Pickleball

Pickleball might be just the game for you. As of 2023, this accessible sport is the fastest-growing sport in the United States for the third year in a row with over 36.5 million players in the nation–many of whom are over 55. The court is smaller than in badminton or tennis and requires paddles that have double the size of a table tennis paddle as well as balls similar in shape to wiffle balls but much smaller. Whether you’re a beginner learning pickleball rules or a pickleball pro, these game dynamics make it perfect for all ages who want to give this fun sport a go.

Swimming

Plus, what better way to make new friends than jumping into poolside activities?
