Tennis for people who can't run anymore.

It's the fatter tennis.

But racquet ball is already white tennis, which is white badminton, which is just the white version of Battledore and shuttlecock.

The top Badminton players are mostly Asian with a few Danes. Badminton is very popular in Asia. It's as far from White as you gonna get.

I should've clarified. White ness is measured by how many pieces of Walmart brand equipment are mouldering in suburban garages.

Aww man I love pickle ball. Met some great people. Plus there is a 10 court brew pub with a league. Don’t see tennis having that

I remember playing pickleball in gym class and thinking it was a game the teachers in my school made up. Also I ain't never seen a minority in any racquetball court I've ever seen. Not that I go to many racquetball courts, buts it's always old white dudes.
