"Blowing the Pickleball over the net”?! We had to give this one a quick Google search, and it has, in fact, been achieved. 👀

Pro pickleball updated its rulebook recently after UPA-A made some interesting changes 👀

Eyebrow-raising rules changes include…

🚫 Players cannot blow the ball over the net any longer
🤦‍♂️ Paddle throwing results in a penalty
😳 Drop serves have been eliminated
🤬 A card system is implemented similar to soccer to prevent players from abusing recurring penalties

Why compromise your court's quality? Douglas® Premier™ XS Tennis and Pickleball Posts are the industry's best, proudly made in the USA! Unlike competitors using imported, Chinese-made posts, we guarantee superior craftsmanship.

Our Premier™ XS 2-7/8” OD posts feature 8-gauge Zinc Flo-Coat steel. This advanced galvanization protects against corrosion inside and out, unlike the competitors’ standard hot-dipped steel.

At 0.165 inches, our 8-gauge steel is a remarkable 36% thicker than the competitor's 12-gauge (0.1046 inches). This means no bending—just unwavering stability.

Finished with a smooth, high-gloss powder coat in black or green, Douglas® posts offer a professional and attractive look compared to the competitor’s dull matte finish.

For your next court project, choose the best. Choose Douglas®.
