Pickleball apparel no problem for Newport Beach women behind PB&Jelly

Kristen Ridge and Sue Murphy met last year at a pickleball clinic. The sport that is described as a mixture of tennis, pingpong and badminton has been surging in popularity in recent years, particularly among the older demographic. Courts have been popping up around Orange County.

They never knew what to wear, though. Tennis clothes fit, but they wanted something distinct. Pickleball apparel typically was just T-shirts with sayings like, “Stay out of the kitchen,” referencing the area near the net where players may not volley from. “Don’t get in a pickle” is another silly pickleball shirt.

Ridge and Murphy founded “PB&Jelly” this summer during the coronavirus pandemic. Their company sells pickleball-themed hats and visors and yes, “PB” stands for pickleball. “We wanted to class it up and get something specifically for pickleball,” said Murphy, who has a background as a buyer and manager at Nordstrom and taught in the fashion department at Long Beach State for several years. “People wear their Lululemon or their tennis gear or whatever, and we wanted a pickleball look.”

You guys joke - my grandfather and I have an absolute blast playing pickleball together. Old man can't move on a tennis court anymore but hits some MEAN dinks on the old folks across the net from us.

F’n weird that you even thought this was worth posting.

I've watched too much lesbian porn, I guess. I expected this to go somewhere else entirely...

Thanks for sharing I guess, just wish I knew there wasn’t anything weird or funny before reading that

The community center where I swim (go there because UK is closed for non varsity swimmers) in Versailles, KY, they have 6 pickle ball courts in the back that are packed with retired/seniors...they seem to have fun. . It seems a great exercise and social activity for the demographic.

We play it out here on Midway Island on a half rotten wooden basketball court. We have a blast and even had several tournaments in the past.

It's a great sport. It's like tennis combined with ping pong.
