Paddleball is a simple game typically played with a wooden or plastic paddle and a small rubber ball. The goal is to hit the ball back and forth between two players, keeping it in the air as long as possible. The game can be played in different settings, such as on a beach or in a park. It can also be played solo, where the player tries to keep hitting the ball repeatedly without letting it touch the ground. Paddleball is often enjoyed casually, offering light exercise and fun.
