You Got It Bad 🏸 | Robert ‘Bob’ Floyd Headcanon
Tumblr media
Edit posted on 2 Sep 24: omg when I posted this a few days ago America had yet to win a medal in badminton (Olympic & Paralympic) and today Team USA’s mixed doubles in badminton won the silver medal!! Congrats to Jayci Simon & Miles Krajewski for their win and making history!! The first ever medal in badminton for USA!!
Being married to Bob & becoming Olympians for the sport of Badminton would look like:
You and Bob met in flight school following your respected commissions into the Navy in 2011, became friends and colleagues, which them bloomed into lovers about a year later. You were the pilot, and he was your back seater---so it is no surprise your relationship worked so well considering you two were partners in the sky. After about two years of dating, Bob popped the famous question and you guys were wed within the year--the Navy sending you guys to bases as a package deal.
As most military instillations, there's a community gym and recreation center where active, reserve, and their families go to participate in intermural sports and activities. Many go for the typical bowling league and softball team or try a hand at flag football and ultimate. For you and Bob, badminton called yall's name.
Originating in British India and popular among countries in Europe and Asia, badminton made its Olympic debut in 1992 in Barcelona, Spain. Now while at first glance badminton may look easy in comparison to other court sports with a net like tennis and volleyball, but badminton requires just as much speed, agility, and precision. Especially when the shuttlecock is flying at record speed from one opponent to the other. The better the motor skills, the better you are.
Of course in the beginning you guys were a little rusty. Figuring out the rules and the best way for you and Bob to coordinate moves. You were the better server, but Bob was better handling the back while you stayed close to the net.
What started as a fun, leisure activity became more serious as you continued to play. Like we're talking you put up a net in your backyard. Whenever you hosted gatherings, you can expect that at some point in the night people migrated to the backyard to play a game or two. And boy would it get intense whenever you and Bob were on opposite sides of the court. "I hope you enjoy losing, pretty boy." "Darling, I know you're always right....but tonight you are wrong."
Not only did you build a sweat when a game got intense, but you looked forward to spending time with your husband outside of work. Not having to deal with the stress of flying or anxiety of running missions. Badminton was a great way to relive the tension and stay active. After every game you shared a sweet kiss with your husband, exchanging praises of 'Great job,' and 'We'll get 'em next time."
You both were competitive and roughly a year after playing you drew attention when you decided to join a local circuit outside of intermural on base. Winning match after match, you guys came in second in your first tournament. A great introduction to the start of your athletic career in mixed doubles badminton---which by the way, shoutout to RedBull and Dunkin Doughnuts for the caffeine supply when balancing a military and sports career.
Now the Olympic Games....the greatest sporting stage the world has ever scene...was never something you envisioned when you and Bob picked up your rackets for the first time. You'd only been playing badminton for a few years, having started in 2014. By the time the Rio Games came around, you guys were no way in Olympic level standings. Sure you'd been in a handful of local tournaments, making the podium in all, but you'd only recently won your regional title for mixed doubles, set to compete in nationals. You had yet to play an international tournament.
That time would come in 2017, and while you came home with third place at you guys were motivated to do better. You wanted to win a World title. Especially to prove to people who thought badminton was not a sport of high popularity like tennis or volleyball--and something you only play as a unit in high school P.E. You and Bob were motivated to bring more eyes to badminton in America. And what better way than to dominate a world tour.
So, when you guys weren't in the sky you were on the court. In the gym. Coaching each other, studying competition, working on technique, rewatching matches from previous Olympics. The Tokyo Games became a goal. And you were determined to make them. The pressure was on considering the United States has never won a medal in any event in badminton. "So, the Olympics...pretty darn big if you ask me." "Baby, you should know that when we put our mind to something, we make it happen."
It got to the point where your family members and friends were asking y'all about progress and even buying you equipment as birthday presents. And with the amount of shuttlecocks you go through monthly it was a blessing to a whole bucket of them in your garage. Your rackets had y'alls callsign's on them and of course you had matching outfits. And soon you guys had to invest in a nice cabinet to display your medals, plaques, and trophies from your competitions. Having the 2018 BWF World Championship right in the center.
You and Bob became a household name in the sport in the American circuit. Not only because you two were dominated the competition, but also the fact you guys were married and Naval officers brought a lot of attention. People who followed the sport became fans and viewed you guys as a love story out of romance books. Friends/coworkers-to-lovers who become teammates and an unstoppable duo in their sport. Yeah, it wrote itself.
When the 2019 detachment came though that became the priority. As much as it pained you to put training for the Sudirman Cup on hold, you had an obligation to the Navy. Nonetheless, you packed up your equipment and made the drive down from Lemoore to San Diego. Once settled, you both were spending any free time at the base rec center, practicing even for 30 minutes if you had it.
Soon the rest of the team picked up your love for the sport and became intrigued. Natasha especially, who became invested in watching you two play against each other. Shocked to see how heated it got and the fact you were able to move so fast to save a rally. "You guys are really into this, huh?" "Yeah. We just started for fun years ago and well..it took off."
After the whole shit between Jake and Bradley where Mav did damage control by taking y'all to the beach for dogfight football, you and Bob whipped out the equipment and soon all 12 of ya paired up to play games. It pretty much turned into a bracket situation where duos were eliminated until two remained for the final round.
And who's suprised....you and Bob won. And because you guys were so good, the team practically interrogated you two to which the reveal of your side career surfaced.
"You mean to tell me," Jake squinted against the sun, "You two are pretty much famous badminton players and are on the road to making the Olympics next year?" "Yep, that's about right. We want to be the first Americans to win a medal in the sport."
Fast forward to the success of the Uranium mission and unexpected world pandemic that followed, you and Bob are homebound due to the Navy restricting all work to remote settings, leaving you all the time in the world to perfect your craft. You won the Sudirman Cup, putting your names once more as contenders for the Tokyo Games and had one more year to train due to the postponement. In that time you and the rest of the Top Gun detachment transferred to Fightertown permanently, further bonding the friendships formed and the team became y'alls biggest supporters.
Qualifying for the Olympics had to have ranked in your top three moments in life. Right in the middle between marrying Bob and the Uranium mission. You jumped in his arms, screaming in joy while he spun you around and let the tears flow, bringing his lips for a passionate kiss not caring who watched. Never had you thought picking up a random badminton racket to pass time and relieve stress after a long work day would lead you to competing in the greatest sporting event alongside the love of your life. Experiencing it with Bob made it all the better. "We're going to the Olympics, baby!!'
Stepping onto the court in Tokyo officially titled you and Bob as Olympians, and while you competed for the gold across the pacific, back home your friends and family gathered to watch it unfold decked in red, white, and blue. The Hard Deck, your hometown, Bob's hometown, the rec center back in Lemoore where you first began playing badminton, the entire damn Navy was cheering you on.
Goal #1: Become Olympians - Achieved. Goal #2: Become the 1st Americans to win a medal in badminton - Achieved. Goal #3: Become the 1st Americans to win a gold medal in badminton - Achieved.
Yeah, you read that right. Not only did you and Bob accomplish everything you set your eyes on, but you cemented yourself in history as the first Americans to win a medal in any event in the sport of badminton and it was the gold. You guys became Olympic champions. And you can best believe the whole world was shocked to their core during the intense, heart pounding, sweat inducing, on the edge of your seat gold medal match against the #1 team in the world. You had already proven yourself to be the team to watch out for after knocking out the other leading pairs in the quarter and semi-finals, but to walk away with the gold after losing the first match, winning the second and tying the score each time until it ended with you scoring the golden point of 30.
Put it in the history books.
And three years later in a sold out crowd with your friend and family in the city of love, you and Bob continued your romantic journey of love, dedication and partnership when you defended your gold medal, adding a second to your cabinet with the promise of a third when the Games return to the Los Angeles 😉

Run BTS: 100 | 100th Episode Special part 1
Original Air Date: 14 AR 2020 Episode Length: 37:12 Total Parts: 2 YouTube English Subtitles: No Title Song: On
Tumblr media
Synopsis: The members are at a gym to celebrate their 100th episode! First a few quiz questions to divide teams and then rounds of silly Badminton with odd tools for rackets and more foot volleyball.
Production: There definitely was a nice budget for this episode being sponsored by Fila. Honestly, I think the flow of the show was well-designed and the editors did a great job of keeping the pacing going with the footage that could have seemed repeatative. They knew exactly how to cut it to insure we were thoroughly entertained the whole time. I do have one teeny tiny note though: Jin, Tae, and Jimin have VERY little footage. Like I get it, go with where the story is but there definitely could have been a little more balance. For example, there's a beat where Jimin and Hobi have a nice rally going between the Pot Lid and the Fry Pan but ALL of the coverage is of Hobi. Maybe they just didn't have the footage for Jimin's side and I likely wouldn't have noticed it in a different episode but these three members get so little screentime in this episode that it's unfortunate the few instances it would have fit in weren't really capitalized.
Endearment: This is easily one of the most iconic episodes for endearment. There are definitely some moments that don't typically get talked about though: I love hearing the members reminisce at the beginning about the very early episodes. The fuss that everyone makes when they learn they can't immediately ring back in with their buzzers! How enamored everyone is by the Fry Pan and Pot Lid sounds.
Winner/Loser: see final part
Best Cheater: I didn't see any. I suspect any sus moments were left on the editing room floor to leave as much screentime as possible for the Badminton and Foot volleyball shenanigans
Member Moments:
RM: RM is so joyfully pessimistic as soon as he realizes it's the rapline against the vocal line
JN: Jin immediately saying he was picked for Good Luck instead when Tae said he was going to pick someone for brains. 
YG: Yoongi really killing it with applying strategy to the ridiculous badminton game and then continually being accused of being a spy on his team for foot volleyball
JH: As expected, Hobi has the most entertaining reactions to getting hit by the birdy
JM: Jimin always trying to feed everyone else. And that look he gives to camera when RM declines! Such a shame he was mostly out of frame
V: Tae catching that birdy like it was nothing
JK: JK being so teased during the cake cutting
Bonus Content: THANK GOODNESS THEY STOPPED DOING THE LOUD SCREECH SOUND BETWEEN CLIPS! I know I'm a little more sound-sensitive than others but it seriously made me want to not watch the Bonus content.
CQ Rank: 4.5

It's funny how Yamazaki is introduced as that one guy who inexplicably plays badminton all the time, like this is his original Notables Character Trait, the Badminton Guy. And then 200 episodes elapse and you realise he hasn't so much as looked at a badminton racket.

Exploring the Importance of Creative Badminton Team Names We all notice when a team steps onto the court with a creative name. Instantly, a unique team name sparks curiosity, letting everyone know we’re playing with energy and style. Opponents often size us up before the first serve, and a distinctive name signals we’re memorable and ready for fun or fierce competition. Choosing a creative team name lifts our spirits and sets a clear identity for anyone watching the match. Teammates rally behind a clever name, boosting unity and enthusiasm during tournaments and club games. With a bold or witty choice, we’re not just another group on the schedule—we become the team everyone talks about and remembers long after the games end. Attention from fans and other teams grows when our name is well-chosen and reflects who we are. Social media buzzes more when people want to share photos or match updates involving teams with standout names. Every time we walk onto the court, our name gives a sense of pride, making every point feel bigger and every match more exciting. Stories often follow clever names—maybe ours hints at an inside joke, a shared goal, or a playful reference in badminton culture. Every detail of our chosen name, from the wordplay to the tone, shows we’re intentional about our image. Over time, these names become part of our team’s legacy, remembered in club histories and league records as a symbol of camaraderie, energy, and identity. Choosing the Right Badminton Team Name for Your Squad Finding that perfect team name can make us feel unstoppable before we even hit the court. Let’s look at what really matters to land the best name for our squad. Reflecting Team Personality and Spirit We want a name that matches how we play and how we show up as a group. Some teams pick cool and unique names like “Smash Titans,” “Racket Lords,” or “Net Kings” to signal serious skills and a strong team bond. Others prefer something creative and catchy; we’ve seen teams go with “Shuttle Warriors,” “Birdie Brawlers,” and “Power Smashers” to show off their imagination and unity. We can even tailor our name to the kind of team we are—maybe “Birdie Mavericks” for co-ed groups or “Racquet Rebels” for all guys. Names like these help our rivals recognize our style and our vibe right away. Considering Humor Versus Seriousness Sometimes, we just want to keep things light and fun, especially for social matches. Funny team names such as “Ace Bandages,” “A Bird In The Hand,” or “Agony Of De Feet” let everyone know we play with a smile. When we’re fighting for trophies in official tournaments, a serious name sends a stronger message. Choices like “Smash Masters” or “The Net Dominators” set a competitive tone and help us gain respect before the first serve. We’ve noticed the game’s setting—friendly or official—can help us decide how bold or formal our team name should sound. Name Type Examples Best For Cool & Unique Smash Titans, Net Kings Competitive/spirited teams Creative/Catchy Shuttle Warriors, Birdie Brawlers Casual/club play Humorous Ace Bandages, Agony Of De Feet Fun/local games Serious/Formal Smash Masters, Net Dominators Official tournaments Showcasing Popular Badminton Team Name Ideas Let’s jump into the most talked-about badminton team names making waves at clubs and tournaments right now. These names capture classic vibes, clever puns, high energy, and standout originality—no matter what makes our team tick, we’ll find something that fits. Classic and Timeless Badminton Team Names We see “Ace In The Hole” and “Alley Oops” always ringing a bell—these names never go out of style with their clever nods to the game. “Birdie Bashers” and “Net Navigators” are both favorites with teams who want a timeless foundation for their squad identity. Teams like “Shuttle Smashers” and “Racket Legends” show up regularly at competitions, reminding everyone that tradition and skill make a powerful combo. Funny and Punny Badminton Team Names Nothing boosts team spirit like a clever play on words. We get a kick out of “Shuttle Puns Intended,” a name that always gets a laugh when announced. “Birdie or Not,” “Racquet-eers,” and “Feather Late Than Never” bring humor courtside, breaking the ice at tournaments. Other teams love “Serve-ivors of the Fittest” and “Smash Hit Parade” for that mix of friendly swagger and quick wit. Choosing names like these signals we’re in it for both fun and memorable moments. Competitive and Fierce Badminton Team Names Sometimes, we just want to flex our competitive muscle. “Smash Titans” and “The Racket Lords” instantly set a bold tone before the first rally. We notice “The Net Kings” and “The Shuttle Demons” on leaderboards—they announce a skilled, no-nonsense approach. Names like “The Smash Warriors” and “The Birdie Commandos” let our competitors know we’re on a mission, ready for tough matches with determination. Cool and Trendy Badminton Team Names We can’t resist fresh and modern vibes. “Vertex Volleys” and “Quantum Shuttles” give off a high-tech feel that appeals to younger teams and club newcomers. “Neon Nets” and “Stealth Servers” draw people in with their sleek, energetic sound. If we want to stand out at night matches, “Eclipse Elites” or “Nebula Ninjas” keep our squad looking sharp both on the scoreboard and online. Unique and Original Badminton Team Names Setting ourselves apart matters. “The Birdie Avengers” and “The Net Mavericks” are favorites among teams craving a personalized touch. “The Shuttle Force” and “The Smash Invincibles” show that we strive for originality while keeping a connection to the sport. Fresh picks like “The Birdie Predators,” “The Racket Revolution,” and “The Smash Sultans” turn heads, helping our team carve out a legacy that’s entirely our own. Customizing Your Own Badminton Team Name Building an original badminton team name is easier when we know what makes a name both fun and meaningful. Our options open up once we tap into a few creative strategies and badminton-exact terms. Tips for Brainstorming Original Team Names Reflecting our team’s personality in the name always sets the right tone. If we play with intensity, “Smash Battalion” or “Shuttle Storm” could echo our energy. Coming up with names as a group ensures everyone feels included and that ideas stay fresh. Tossing out suggestions together often uncovers gems we’d never find alone. We steer clear of names already in use. This avoids confusion at tournaments and lets us build our own identity. Sharing a list of ideas can help us vote on favorites and keep the excitement up. Tying in our culture or heritage personalizes the name, like using colors, symbols, or phrases unique to where we’re from. Making our team name personal and unique cements it as our own. Using Wordplay and Badminton Terms Injecting wordplay boosts the name’s fun factor and makes it stick in people’s minds. Using familiar badminton terms unlocks playful combinations like “Net Ninjas” or “Racket Rebels.” Mixing a bit of humor, we could try “Birdie Brawlers” or “Shuttlecock Slammers.” We can always start with a badminton word and add a twist for flavor. “Racket Rangers” suggests adventure while “Shuttle Force” emphasizes quick reactions on the court. Bringing a sense of adventure or attitude gives names like “Court Crusaders” or “Net Mavericks” extra energy that teammates will rally around. Playing with language doesn’t just make us stand out—it ensures our team name sounds fresh and original in every match. Avoiding Common Mistakes When Naming Your Badminton Team Picking the right badminton team name can be tricky, but some missteps are easy to dodge if we keep a few things in mind. Let’s break down the steps that’ll help us avoid big pitfalls and make sure our team name hits the mark. First, we should think about diversity and inclusivity. No one should feel left out by our team name. Choosing something like “Net Ninjas” or “Smash Sisters” gives off a positive, open vibe—perfect if we’ve got a mixed or co-ed squad. Next, we want our name to be original and unique. Teams everywhere love using names like “The Smashers” or “Birdie Busters,” but these can blend together at tournaments. Creative picks such as “Shuttle Shockers” or “Racket Rebels” will let us stand apart and build a strong team identity. Then, memorability matters. It’s a hassle if people can’t recall our name during shoutouts or social media updates. Simple names like “Speedy Serves” or “Power Smashers” stick in minds, so friendly crowds won’t have to wonder who we are. We also need to lock down a name that fits our team’s personality. Maybe we like a bit of fun—so why not go with a pun, like “Ace Bandages”? If humor isn’t our thing, something bolder, like “Shuttle Warriors,” can show our serious side. Choosing a respectful and uplifting name is a must. Any terms with double meanings or hidden jokes could offend teammates or other clubs. None of us want our squad’s reputation clouded by a misinterpreted title, so steering clear keeps things friendly. It’s important to think about our team type. If we’re all-women, names like “Smash Sirens” or “Net Queens” can feel empowering. For men’s or co-ed teams, sticking with universal options like “Net Ninjas” always works. Sometimes we need a little inspiration. We can pull from animals like “The Eagles,” go mythical with “The Dragons,” or channel champions with “The Invincibles.” Each one brings a different energy to the badminton court. Keeping things simple and clear should top our list. Picking a name that’s too long or complicated will trip folks up. When we’re cheering our team on or filling out forms, short and punchy names bring out the best reaction. Working through these steps together, we can make sure our badminton team name is inclusive, memorable, and truly reflects who we are every time we step on the court. Inspiring Your Team Identity With the Perfect Name Picking a name for our badminton team means more than checking a box. Everyone enjoys being part of something memorable, whether it’s the “Smash Masters” bringing a bold attitude or the “Ace Bandages” sharing a laugh before every match. Let’s break down steps that’ll help us zero in on a team name that truly inspires us. First, we should invite everyone to participate in the brainstorm. Group sessions unlock creativity and give every teammate a voice, making sure no good idea gets missed. Choosing together builds instant camaraderie and gets us more invested in the result. Next, thinking about our team’s personality really matters. Some teams naturally gravitate toward strong, competitive vibes—names like “Net Ninjas” or “Power Smashers” fit right in. Others prefer to keep things fun and playful, with names like “Agony Of De Feet” that never fail to earn a smile. Using badminton terms helps too. Words like “shuttle,” “smash,” “net,” and “rally” offer endless inspiration for puns or wordplay. “Shuttle Warriors” or “Speedy Serves” work because everyone immediately connects them to badminton and they roll off the tongue. Drawing inspiration from cultural or national backgrounds can make the name even more meaningful. For example, “Shuttleraj Warriors” and “Smash Shaktis” fuse Indian heritage and game spirit perfectly. Teams from the US or Thailand benefit the same way with names like “USA Badminton Eagles” or “Thailand Badminton Titans.” Names with strong imagery, such as “Downy Daredevils” or “Feather Phantoms,” stick with us long after the game ends. Visual cues give our team an identity that’s easy for players, fans, and even rivals to remember. We’ll want to keep things simple and memorable. Short names catch on quickly—“Net Queens” or “Birdie Brawlers” are examples we won’t forget or mispronounce. All these steps make sure our chosen name becomes more than words on a roster. Instead, the right name captures what bonds us and sets the tone for every rally, win, and celebration that comes our way. Conclusion Choosing a badminton team name is more than just picking words that sound good together. It’s about capturing our team’s personality and building a sense of unity that lasts beyond the court.

Understanding the Basics: What is Pickleball and Why is it So Popular?
Pickleball is a relatively new sport that has taken the world by storm recently. Combining elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis, this unique game is growing rapidly in popularity across age groups and skill levels. From local community centers to international tournaments, pickleball has become a favorite recreational activity for many. But what exactly is pickleball, and why has it become so popular? Let's explore the basics of the game and the factors contributing to its surge in popularity.
What is Pickleball?
Pickleball is a paddle sport played on a small court, similar to a badminton court, with a net slightly lower than that used in tennis. The game is played with a paddle and a plastic ball with holes, resembling a whiffle ball. It can be played as singles or doubles, but doubles is the more common format.
The game's objective is simple: players aim to hit the ball over the net and into the opponent's court without the opponent successfully returning it. Points are scored only by the serving team, and the first team to reach 11 points with a two-point lead wins the game.
One of the key features of pickleball is its accessibility. The rules are easy to learn, making it suitable for players of all ages and skill levels. While it may look like a slower-paced game compared to tennis, pickleball involves quick reflexes, strategic shot placement, and plenty of movement, offering fun and a good workout.
The Origins of Pickleball
Pickleball was invented in 1965 by three fathers—Joel Pritchard, Bill Bell, and Barney McCallum—in Bainbridge Island, Washington. The game started as a way to keep their children entertained during the summer. Using a badminton court, ping-pong paddles, and a perforated plastic ball, the game quickly evolved as the fathers improvised the rules and equipment.
The sport's quirky name came from the Pritchard family dog, Pickles, who habitually ran off with the ball during games. Over time, a backyard family activity developed into a structured sport with equipment, governing bodies, and organized competitions.
Why is Pickleball So Popular?
The popularity of pickleball has skyrocketed for several reasons. First and foremost, it's an easy game to pick up, which attracts people of all ages. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced athlete, pickleball offers a low barrier to entry. Unlike tennis or other racket sports that require significant skill and strength, pickleball is more forgiving, allowing newcomers to enjoy the game without extensive practice.
Another factor contributing to the sport's growth is its appeal to older adults. Pickleball's smaller court and slower ball speed make it a less physically demanding option than tennis, making it a perfect fit for seniors looking to stay active without the risk of high-impact injuries. Many retirement communities across the U.S. have built pickleball courts, encouraging residents to play and stay social.
Pickleball also fosters a sense of community. Whether played in parks, gyms, or clubs, pickleball brings people together. The smaller court size means players are always close to each other, creating opportunities for conversation and connection. It's not uncommon to see players of different skill levels and ages playing together, making it a highly inclusive sport.
Lastly, pickleball's adaptability has played a major role in its popularity. Courts can be set up almost anywhere, indoors or outdoors, and the equipment is inexpensive. This makes the sport accessible to people regardless of location or financial situation, further expanding its reach.
Pickleball in Competitive Sports
While pickleball started as a casual, recreational game, it has evolved into a competitive sport with professional leagues and tournaments. The USA Pickleball Association (USAPA) is the sport's governing body, organizing national tournaments and setting official gameplay rules. Professional pickleball players and events now draw large crowds, with sponsorship deals and media coverage following the sport's rise.
Major tournaments like the U.S. Open Pickleball Championships and the National Pickleball Championships showcase the highest level of talent in the game. These events have helped elevate pickleball's status from a simple pastime to a recognized sport. The growing popularity of competitive pickleball has also attracted younger athletes who see potential in the sport as a career opportunity.
With the introduction of televised matches and live-streamed events, pickleball is gaining attention from sports enthusiasts worldwide. The excitement and fast-paced nature of the game make it entertaining for spectators, further boosting its popularity.
Health Benefits of Pickleball
Beyond pickleball's fun and social aspects, the game offers numerous health benefits. It provides a low-impact cardiovascular workout, making it an excellent option for individuals looking to improve their fitness without putting too much strain on their joints. The game involves quick lateral movements, balance, and coordination, which help improve agility and reflexes over time.
Pickleball also promotes mental well-being. The social interaction inherent in the game helps combat feelings of isolation, especially among older adults. Playing regularly can reduce stress, improve mood, and foster a sense of accomplishment, all contributing to overall mental health.
Additionally, pickleball is a great way to burn calories and improve endurance. A typical game involves constant movement, which can help with weight management and muscle tone. Since it can be played at varying intensity levels, players can adjust their approach based on their fitness goals and physical capabilities.
The Future of Pickleball
The future of pickleball looks bright as more people discover it. With new courts being built in parks, recreation centers, and even schools across the country, its reach is expanding rapidly. The sport's growing popularity is also fueled by increasing social media influencers and celebrities sharing their love for the game, further spreading awareness.
As pickleball continues to gain traction, its potential for further growth seems limitless. More communities, schools, and sports organizations are adopting the game, and with the rise of professional leagues and international tournaments, it's clear that pickleball is here to stay.
Pickleball's unique combination of accessibility, social interaction, and physical activity has made it one of the fastest-growing sports in the world. Whether looking for a fun way to stay active or a competitive outlet, pickleball offers something for everyone. Its easy-to-learn rules, inclusive nature, and health benefits have helped it gain widespread popularity. As more people pick up paddles and head to the courts, pickleball is set to become a staple of recreational and competitive sports for years to come.

Pickleball vs Tennis: The Battle of Racket Sports
Tumblr media
Two games are enduring favorites in racquet sports: Pickleball and tennis. Both provide entertaining games, chances for social contact, and an opportunity to work up a sweat. But which sport is better than Pickleball or tennis? Let's investigate and get started with the comparison.
A Brief Overview of Pickleball vs Tennis
Pickleball is a relatively new racket sport that has become extremely popular recently. Pickleball, which dates back to the mid-1960s, is a sport that blends ping pong, badminton, and tennis techniques. Pickleball is a fun and accessible game for players of all ages and ability levels that is played on a tiny court with a paddle and a plastic ball with holes.
On the other hand, tennis has a long and illustrious history that dates back to the 1800s. Tennis originated in England and has since spread worldwide, becoming a popular sport that draws spectators worldwide to professional events like Wimbledon and the US Open. Tennis is played on a bigger court with a racket and a ball coated in felt, and players must be agile, strong, and precise.
Gameplay Comparison
The gaming mechanics of tennis and Pickleball exhibit unique qualities that accommodate varying player tastes and abilities. Tennis emphasizes strength, accuracy, and endurance in longer, more intense matches than Pickleball, which thrives on its fast-paced rallies and clever shot placement.
Pickleball
The exciting, fast-paced gameplay of Pickleball is well-liked by players of all ages and abilities. Beginning players will find it simpler to take up the game faster due to the smaller court size and slower ball speed. Furthermore, pickleball courts' small size encourages fierce rallies and well-placed shots.
Pickleball's scoring system limits points to the serving team. This introduces a strategic component as players want to keep control of the serve to score points.
Tennis
Tennis players must possess a higher level of athleticism and endurance due to the wider court and faster ball speed. Tennis players must be extremely strong in strength, agility, and mental toughness due to prolonged rallies and forceful serves.
In tennis, points are scored using a more conventional system that progresses from 15, 30, 40, and games. In large tournaments, matches may be decided by best-of-three or best-of-five sets, which ups the ante on the tension and thrill of the match.
Equipment and Gear
The gear and equipment used in Pickleball and tennis greatly influence how games are played. Every sport provides various options, from paddles to rackets, balls to strings, to meet players' unique styles, preferences, and performance requirements.
Pickleball
The components of pickleball equipment are a net, a perforated plastic ball, and a paddle. Pickleball paddles are available in various sizes, shapes, and materials to accommodate a range of playing preferences and styles. Purchasing a superior paddle can greatly impact the court for players who want to improve their skills. If you want to purchase one, look through the in-depth pickleball paddle evaluations at My Pickleball Haven.
Tennis
You'll need a net, a ball covered in felt, and a racket to play tennis. Tennis players can personalize their equipment to fit their playing style by choosing rackets that differ in weight, head size, and string tension. A player's racket can significantly impact their performance, affecting power, control, and spin creation.
Skill and Technique
Which game calls for more ability and technique, Pickleball or tennis? Both sports emphasize distinct gameplay elements, even though they call for athleticism and precision.
Pickleball Technique
The technique must be mastered for pickleball players to succeed on the court. Because of the smaller court and slower tempo than tennis, players need to concentrate more on accuracy and delicacy than force.
The dinking game is one of the fundamental components of pickleball technique. Dinking is a tactic to keep the ball low and put your opponents on difficult shots by gently striking the ball over the net, usually with an underhand stroke. Hand-eye coordination and touch are critical for controlling the pace and placement of dinks.
A vital component of the Pickleball strategy is the third-shot descent. Players try to hit a soft, angled shot close to the kitchen line or the non-volley zone to position themselves favorably at the net following the serve and return. The third-shot drop is a skill that involves timing, accuracy, and awareness of your opponent's moves to execute well.
Additionally, Pickleball players must master the art of the volley, which involves hitting the ball in the air before it bounces. Volleys allow players to maintain control of the point and pressure their opponents by taking away time and space. Pickleball technique emphasizes precision, touch, and court awareness, making it a game of finesse rather than brute force.
Tennis Technique
Every part of the game of tennis, from serving and groundstrokes to volleys and overheads, depends heavily on technique. Unlike Pickleball, which has a smaller court and a slower tempo, tennis demands players to produce force and spin while retaining accuracy and control.
The serve is one of the key components of tennis technique. A well-placed serve may give players a big advantage and set the tone for the entire point. Players must become proficient in various serve varieties, such as flat, slice, and topspin to keep their opponents off balance and force weak returns.
Another crucial element of tennis technique is using groundstrokes, such as backhands and forehands. Players must concentrate on their footwork, grip, and swing mechanics to produce force and consistency from the baseline. Comprehending various shot angles and spins lets players control play and force their opponents to defend.
Finishing points and ending games at the net depend on volley technique. To put the ball away with accuracy and grace, players need to be able to respond fast to incoming shots and utilize good technique. Power, spin, and adaptability are the main focuses of tennis technique, which means that players must master various abilities to be successful at all game levels.
Final Verdict
Tennis vs. Pickleball is a match when there is no obvious winner. Both sports appeal to various participants and provide distinctive experiences and health advantages. Whether you are drawn to tennis's timeless elegance or Pickleball's fast-paced action, it comes down to personal preference. So take a paddle or racket, head to the court, and experience the excitement of the game.Remember to visit My Pickleball Haven for in-depth evaluations of pickleball paddles and equipment suggestions to improve your game. My Pickleball Haven provides all the resources you need to improve your pickleball skills, regardless of your experience level. Have fun while playing!

Austin and Ally (2011)
Originally published December 15th, 2011
If you didn’t know, I am now keeping up with a new Disney Channel show called Austin and Ally.  Why?  For a few reasons.  Firstly, Laura Marano is my new crush.  Secondly, I had forgotten how entertained I was by their destitute writing.  Thirdly, the relationship between the two main characters is actually considerably intriguing.This is my review of the second episode, titled “Kangaroos and Chaos”.  Already there is alliteration.  Be ready to be conciliated!
Note: When I say review, I basically bullet the noteworthy parts of the show.
A game of badminton that substitutes rackets with banjos!
The smashing of a banjo on a countertop being passed off as accidental when it clearly wasn’t!
An accordian pun!  At last!
A customer with eye trouble being made out to act braindead!
A girl asking for the autograph of a guy that won a contest for eating a twenty-pound hamburger and the guy pulling out a bottle of ketchup he keeps in his backpack and signing his name on her back in ketchup writing!
A group of teenagers somehow finding the money to order a kangaroo and the suggestion that ordering a kangaroo is as simple as ordering a pizza!
An unusually dramatic reaction to an incredibly facetious threat!
A guy trying to teach a kangaroo guitar!
A kangaroo being accused of chewing on a jacket when its mouth isn’t even open!
Huh…as a serious side note, I’m actually starting to enjoy this episode.  It has a very “Broadway comedy” feel to it, where the jokes are cheesy, but lovably so.  And there have actually been lines that I have found funny for the intended reasons.  Whoda thunkit?
An extremely predictable toast joke!
It’s actually becoming hard for my to caustically reproach this show as I grow to appreciate its style more, but I’ll KEEP TRYING.
Stupidity that isn’t funny!
A confusing plot hole.  It’s suggested that ordering a kangaroo is a cheap and easy thing to do.  Yet, people pay to see a kangaroo live.  Why don’t they just order one?  You could argue by saying it was very expensive to order the kangaroo and the character that ordered it had a lot of money.  Perhaps, but the character that ordered it is an aspiring filmmaker.  Wouldn’t his priority for spending money be on a quality camera?  His camera is of consumer brand.
A father getting mercilessly beaten by a kangaroo to the point of sustaining a head injury and children laughing at the video recording of it!
Well, that’s it.  I was planning on following the show religiously as a joke, but now I may be getting ~~~attached~~~ to it.

hi im Nathalie
The game of badminton originated in Siam, China over 2,000 years ago. It was brought to England in 1870 and was played somewhat like tennis. After being played in Canada, badminton arrived in America and has been popular since 1929. Since 1992, badminton has been an Olympic sport, with bird speeds reaching 100 m.p.h.
Badminton has its origins in ancient civilizations in Asia and Europe with a game called battledore (bat or paddle) and shuttlecock. The name 'Badminton' comes from a stately home in Gloucestershire, England – home of the Duke of Beaufort.
The first badminton club in this country, the Badminton Club of New York, was formed in 1878 and became a weekend meeting place for New York's society leaders. Badminton's popularity boomed in the 1930's as educational institutions, YMCA's, and hundreds of newly formed clubs offered badminton instruction.
The shuttlecock is very light. Playing badminton is an excellent exercise for the body. It strengthens muscles, enhances reflexes and motor coordination, increases flexibility and improves balance. It helps with these things better than other sports because it uses every muscle in the body.
Badminton, court or lawn game played with lightweight rackets and a shuttlecock. Historically, the shuttlecock (also known as a “bird” or “birdie”) was a small cork hemisphere with 16 goose feathers attached and weighing about 0.17 ounce (5 grams). These types of shuttles may still be used in modern play, but shuttles made from synthetic materials are also allowed by the Badminton World Federation. The game is named for Badminton, the country estate of the dukes of Beaufort in Gloucestershire, England, where it was first played about 1873. The roots of the sport can be traced to ancient Greece, China, and India, and it is closely related to the old children’s game battledore and shuttlecock. Badminton is derived directly from poona, which was played by British army officers stationed in India in the 1860s. The first unofficial all-England badminton championships for men were held in 1899, and the first badminton tournament for women was arranged the next year.
The Badminton World Federation (BWF; originally the International Badminton Federation), the world governing body of the sport, was formed in 1934. Badminton is also popular in Malaysia, Indonesia, Japan, and Denmark. The BWF’s first world championships were held in 1977. A number of regional, national, and zonal badminton tournaments are held in several countries. The best-known of these is the All-England Championships.

Hello everyone! Badminton, court or lawn game played with lightweight rackets and a shuttlecock.

A number of regional, national, and zonal badminton tournaments are held in several countries. The best-known of these is the All-England Championships. Other well-known international tournaments include the Thomas Cup (donated 1939) for men’s team competition and the Uber Cup (donated 1956) for women’s team competition.
Badminton first appeared in the Olympic Games as a demonstration sport in 1972 and as an exhibition sport in 1988. At the 1992 Games it became a full-medal Olympic sport, with competition for men’s and women’s singles (one against one) and doubles (two against two). Mixed doubles was introduced at the 1996 Games.
