Can these be use to play pickleball? Are they as hard as a pickleball?

They're not as hard as a pickleball that I remember from high school gym class. These are sturdy but do have a little "give" if you press on the surface.

I have never played that game, but they might work. They are really small... maybe an little more than an inch tall and an inch and a half long?

I would say no, they are not tough, they tend to keep the shape of any heavy object that's placed on top. Plus they are very slippery once they get dust under them.

They are super bouncy, light, and about the size of a small baseball. They should be a good choice for your use case. Thanks!

I think so - as long as the game area isn't too big. They are very soft and wouldn't hurt anyone, but not really heavy enough to fly across an entire gymnasium...

yes, you should be able to throw a good distance, they are just a little less firm than a tennis ball(?). Hope this helps

They are hard, not soft. My daughters both chewed on the soft ones and made extra holes, so these worked better for them.

I guess it would depend on the person getting hit and the amount of force used. These aren't flimsy, they are solid/firm plastic. My sons play pretty rough with them regularly and only complain if someone is getting too hard. Always treat others the way you would like to be treated- No matter what you are using!

They are really light. We use them for inside ball play all the time. They have not been a problem for my toddlers. They are not like Nerf balls; they are light like styrofoam but soft like sponges.

These are terrible for actual playing. I bought them for a game and they don't bounce well, even for just a non-ping pong game.

Badminton yes, Pickleball no. As you probably already know badminton does not have a bounce whereas Pickleball does. The ball won't bounce on grass very well because it's a light whiffle ball type of plastic ball.Yes you can set it up but good luck trying to play anything but badminton.Just for your info the real way to play badminton is in an indoor gym or specific badminton gym. Luckily we have a few in the Phoenix area where we live.I hope I was able to help. Sorry for the lengthy reply but hope you have fun wherever you play. Good luck!

I would look for balls that are considered "hard" ball pit balls, but even those may not workthese are "soft"

These are not kids toys. They are fragile, collector toys. I would not buy them for a kid to play with. My son does not get to play with mine.

What size are these pickleballs? I use it primarily for penn tennis balls and the product is really good for those. It's flexible but just about for the tennis ball.

In my experience, they do not play at all. My first pair lasted under a day, the replacements faired a little better once I managed to pair them (an every use event), but the second set lasted maybe three months. They have been tossed in the trash after trying to use them a second summer. But yes, once I did manage to get them to work, they sounded good. We paid a lot of money for a lot of headache, and less than 20 hours of total play, if you choose to purchase these, I wouldn't expect too much out of them.
