If you haven’t played pickleball please check it out. Take lessons and you will meet people and learn where everyone is playing. I am a very competitive person so I never play in any games except open rec. You can play as hard as you like. I have knee issues and monitor how much I play never more than 3 games at a time or two days in a row. Pickleball satisfies the need for exercise and for social interaction a win-win game.

I loved playing racquetball and tennis years ago. Through arthroscopic surgery my ACL in my right knee was removed. This left me very limited as to which sports I could play because lateral movements cause my knee to blow. Is pickle ball any different from racquetball and tennis from a knee lateral movement point of view?
