I probably should have written padel/pickleball. It’s similar to padel tennis but with a hollow ball, it’s been gaining traction at a crazy pace in the US and slowly making it into Europe. It’s been slowly taking over padel, which used to be The Sport for office workers who want to make sure they’re practising a sport, want to make sure they can tell you they’re practising a sport, but they don’t want something that will get their heart past 130 BPM.
No hate though - if it gets people doing a sport it’s a good thing. Just don’t tell me every day that pickleball is the best, we need to play pickleball, when are we going to join you for the pickleball match, you need to play pickleball because the CTO of this other company is coming so therefore it’s work - this has actually happened to me, etc.
Padel crew are a bit less vocal, but not by much. I feel this is a bit country-specific. When I lived in Spain, padel was the rage, and in the US it was pickleball. In the UK I don’t see much of either.
Nowhere near as much as people who do CrossFit, people who play pickleball, or air fryer owners.
Haha, Airfryer crew for sure too. Never heard of pickle ball tho

Oh anyone who plays Airsoft. In which case that’s literally all they talk about they have no other aspects do their personality.
