More PB info here
For those considering PB and not wanting to read all of those posts, do be aware that starting something new does introduce chance of injury. So I’ll net out some safety tips discussed in the thread:
- wear eye protection (glasses/sunglasses or PB protective eyewear)
- for a high ball, don’t run backward or lean back to get it
- beware of stepping on balls, a major cause of injury… and call “BALL!!” if one of. yours wanders to another court - then then can stop play and stay safe. Most people I play with use just one ball (sometimes two) for a game to reduce risk of stray balls
- stretching before (and/or dink in Ready position etc) and later
