Pickleball was born on an island near Seatle in 1965, according to the USAPA’s website. The game originated as a backyard activity created by three fathers. There are several accounts as to why the game is called “pickleball.” One claims that a family’s cocker spaniel, named “Pickles,” used to chase after the wiffle ball.
