It seems to me that Marcus has the same passion for pickleball that I have for boxing. It seems that both sports can help improve balance, cognition, reaction time and socialization. The disadvantage that I perceive with pickleball is that one has to be more physically fit than for boxing. Additionally, there is greater possibility for falling in pickleball than in boxing. However, it provides a viable option for those who are physically able to participate.
The blog provided me with an understanding of pickleball that I did not have.
