    So well done!

    "Breaking Pickleball" isn't just a series; it's a cultural phenomenon that elegantly combines drama, humor, and the unexpected thrills of an often underestimated sport. With each episode, the series delves into the intricacies of pickleball, but the true magic lies in its exploration of its characters' lives and their passions.

    The storytelling is masterful, weaving complex narratives that explore themes of ambition, rivalry, and redemption. The creators have managed to make pickleball more than just a game; it's a backdrop for life-changing stories that resonate with anyone watching, regardless of their interest in sports.

    Visually, the series is stunning. The cinematography captures the fast-paced action of pickleball while also focusing on the subtle emotional moments that give the series its heart. The use of music and sound design further enriches the viewing experience, perfectly accentuating the drama and excitement of the matches.

    "Breaking Pickleball" is a testament to the power of good storytelling and innovative conceptualization. It's a series that not only entertains but also inspires. It's a must-watch for anyone who loves a good underdog story or just wants to see something genuinely fresh and exciting on television. Whether you're a pickleball enthusiast or a newcomer, there's something in this series for everyone.

    Drive First! Drive Hard! No Mercy!

    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!!

    The best so far

    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.

    WOW - pickleball/sports fans beware

    If you enjoy pickleball or a good sports show - look no further, this is it! Prepare to binge watch for the next 3 and a bit hours.

    Following teams in the first ever Arizona Pickleball League. You get to know some core characters and follow them to their homes, practices, team building events and to the games.

    This is such a great Docuseries to binge watch. The characters are real, the pickleball shown is exciting and makes you want you to get out and play. I watched with someone who isn't pickleball obsessed (like me) and while I especially liked the pickleball shots, she liked the storyline with the characters.

    My only way to make this Docuseries better is to have more of it! Please make a season 2!!

    Entertaining from start to finish

    Breaking Pickleball shares the real-time story of Jigsaw Health standing up a regional pro pickleball league in Scottsdale, Arizona. The documentary follows 5 teams with 4 players each through the inaugural season. The episodes have player features and game-play from the regular season and playoffs. The level of competition is high... the sportsmanship even higher. Breaking Pickleball is entertaining from start to finish... you feel like you are along for the journey.

    First impressions are fun, funny, professional, and binge worthy... if you play pickleball, if you love sports, if you want to see true entrepreneurship and risk-taking to create something special, then you'll love Breaking Pickleball!!
