😫 The Numbers Behind the Noise

According to the SLU researchers, 68.5% of participants reported at least one injury in the past year, with 40.8% involving missed court time and 51.2% categorized as non–time-loss injuries. Most concerning, one in three players continued to play despite ongoing pain or injury.

The injuries weren’t just minor aches. The knee was the most injured body part (29.1%), followed by lower extremities (26.9%), shoulders (22.2%), backs (19.9%), and elbows (18.4%). Overuse conditions, joint sprains, and muscle strains were among the most serious injury types.

Other injuries include Eye Injuries including Traumatic Cataracts, Orbital Floor Fractures and even Blindness.

These numbers confirm what players intuitively feel: pickleball is far more physically demanding than its gentle image suggests.

Take extra care Picklies!!!
