Breaking Pickleball

What a great show - I loved the team names, the logos, the training, the venue, getting to know the players, watching them training. And the rules!! Wow! What a great way to make a sport into a real TEAM game - and of course the Rubber Chicken rule!! Pickleball is growing massively all over the world and this show really demonstrates its appeal to the masses. Having just taken up the sport it really hooks you in and gives you an insight into the training and the massive work that goes on behind the scenes. I'm a massive fan of sports documentaries and films and this is right up with the best of them. I cannot wait for the next series - I might even move to Arizona to join in the fun!!

I expected to like Breaking Pickleball because I'm a fan of the sport. What I didn't expect was to see such wonderful storytelling. They did an awesome job developing characters that I was really rooting for by the end of the season.

I also think this is the best version of pickleball video that I've seen. The camera angles + commentary, along with adding music to the points that they highlighted, made for a very exciting presentation of the game.

Having been lucky enough to witness the AZ PB league in person, I highly recommend making a priority if you're ever in the area. Patrick and Ashley put on an incredible show, both in person and on screen!

Can't wait for season 2!

You've been Forewarned Orchard Pickleball! This review is "Kyle Koszuta Approved" since it's inspired off of Cobra Kai as my Review Subject line is indicative of. In Pickleball to be you Drive First, Drive Hard with No Mercy! This Pickleball inspired Sports Drama delivers on this premise to the tee and then some.

Never in a hundred years did I think Pickleball could be a team.sport. I mean I've seen Racket and Paddle Sports like Tennis, Table Tennis and Badminton being played as Doubles but 4 players where each duo can either play alternating quarters or have an invariable substitution rule seen as strategic based on points in a game. Pickleball just got a whole lot more interesting consequently! It's as if Pickleball meets the NFL now, especially when you have a Challenge Rule and a Chicken instead of a Flag to throw out whenever your team wants to Challenge. ROGER GOODDELL, ARE YOU LISTENING, MUCH LESS PAYING ANY ATTENTION HERE?!?! :-)

Personally, I just got oriented with the game of Pickleball myself late last year in late August/early September and this Drama opened my eyes to a broader perspective on the Sport. It's a good start to see that they started with the Arizona Pickleball League but I've even reached out to Patrick and Ashley to inspire some thoughts on a Texas Pickleball League to perhaps be a next venue for their ventures. The only challenge I see that Texas may bring is the distances between the major cities given the State's Size.

Patrick and Ashley are looking to bring this Drama Series to the Streaming PLatforms like Amazon Prime, Netflix and maybe even Max if they get the traction. Hey ESPN+, I'M CALLING YOU OUT BECAUSE YOU'RE MISSING OUT ON THE LATEST TRENDS HERE! IF YOU WANT TO REMAIN RELEVANT TO THE LATEST TRENDS THEN WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!?! BREAKING PICKLEBALL SHOULD BE YOUR NEXT TARGET!

Now that Cobra Kai is unfortunately ending in a 3 part Season Finale, coming July 18 (Part 1), 11/28 (Part 2) and sometime TBD in 2025 (Part 3), this maybe at the top of my list of bigeworthy TV Sports Dramas. Awesome job Orchard Pickleball!! I'm already waiting for more!!

20 out of 10, it's that good!!! Thank you Jigsaw Health for your commitment to bringing pro pickleball to us enthusiasts. We only found out about The Orchard in Scottsdale Az during the second season, so watching how you and the team started it all was fascinating. I had no idea that the Pickleball DJ was the brains behind the whole operation, I just thought he was a great hired hand. Listening to all the players stories of where they began to how the Security Guard takes his job so seriously. This Breaking Pickleball documentary will have you doing a loud belly laugh as it is entertainment at its finest, we cannot wait for you do season twos recap. Bravo 🙌🙌🙌

I watched this series on YT during the free access and I can tell I enjoyed every episode. Just like other modern sports documentaries it brings into general public attention what happens behind "closed doors", things that you don't get to see in articles online, news or on the courts. Pickleball is a growing sport and not everybody knows what it is or how it can become so addictive. I love the use of humor in this documentary. The image quality is great. The characters are real pickleball players and they do a very good job in playing their role. I highly recommend this documentary, it's something new, exiting and you'll get to see why pickleball is so great.
