    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.

    Great fun to see the birth of a sports league.

    This is my kind of documentary. This was such a fun league and the players and personalities were really fun and engaging. I have become totally invested in seeing these players compete in the Arizona Pickleball League but also in MLP and the PPA. The Arizona league is the best produced league in the pickleball world. They have a great sense of humor and a really amazing level of competitiveness that really pulls you in. It is interesting to see how the league developed and how it is evolving to bee even more entertaining and competitive in the future. I hope the owners are able to really grow this league in the future.

    Entertaining and engaging!

    As a relatively new pickleball player, I loved the 'behind the scenes' glimpses into the training and communication of the athletes in this documentary. They all work so hard! Highlighting each team and following their ups and downs was entertaining and I looked forward to each episode as it dropped. High production value, very easy to watch; I have told so many of my pickleball friends to look for it. Love the puppies, too! The Jigsaw owners' dedication to building the sport in their community while being attentive to profitability AND finding space to support local puppies and dogs in need is amazing!

    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.

    Delightful Dinking

    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!!
