Called out? But ruled in? What happens now?
Pickleball is self-reffed on line calls. A referee can overrule, but rarely does. Newman’s sister, his playing partner, overruled her brother and called it in.
If a team is not in unison on a call the point goes against them.

And now PRO pickelball brings the sport to a new level with investors and no doubt a surge in amateur play. All those empty tennis courts around the country will be converted and … like Yogi Berra would say, “no one goes there now, its too crowded…”

Whatever you do, don’t check the health questionnaire box that asks if you play pickleball. I just saw a headline saying that pickleball injuries are on the rise — and so could your insurance.
Be careful out there, pickleball players! Who knew?!

Maybe a sport for old white people?
I kid, I kid…Many years ago, I bought up all of the Trac-ball sets at a Lionel Leisure City store which was closing. I had a dream of team Trac-ball.
But pickleball looks like a fun sport, although I saw an ad on TV for some sort of Pickleball tournament show and the host was Steven Colbert. Ugh. Not the best endorsement.
