Pickleball is one of the fastest growing sports in America. At the Waterford community in Leland, pickleball expert, Ryan Manchester gave us the background of the game that many call addictive.
"You can play anywhere indoors or outdoors," said Manchester. "We have four courts on one tennis court and it's great because it keeps people active."
65-year-old Marty Smith normally plays two hours of pickleball every day.
"It's just like table tennis," said Smith. "If you get in to playing table tennis you want to play all the time. Pickleball is the same way."
