What should I wear to play pickleball?
We are an indoor club, so players are encouraged to wear athletic wear and court shoes — tennis, squash or pickleball sneakers (no running or leisure shoes). We have no color requirement, but the game of pickleball does not allow any yellow clothing. Women tend to wear tennis shorts or golf skirts with an athletic tank or shirt; men wear an athletic shirt and shorts.
