  With pickleball's popularity soaring in the U.S., so are the potential
  injury costs from the fastest-growing sport in the
  country. 
  
  Investment bank UBS estimates that pickleball-related injuries could result in health insurance costs
  ranging from $250 million to $500 million in 2023 alone.
  
  
  
  Health insurance company UnitedHealth Group recently reported a higher-than-expected frequency of hip replacements,
  knee surgeries, and other elective procedures.
  
  UBS Group analysts say  some of the uptick is a direct result of more people picking up their racquets
  to hit the courts and play pickleball - the number of players has increased by
  159 percent in three years.  
  
  In the sport, which is a hybrid of badminton, ping-pong and tennis, players use a plastic-perforated ball, slightly heavier than a
  whiffle ball, and wooden or composite paddles that are about twice
  the size of ping-pong paddles.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  UnitedHealth say there has been a higher-than-expected frequency of hip replacements,
  knee surgeries, and other elective procedures as a result of more people taking up pickleball
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  There has been a huge spurt in the numbers of people suddenly taking up pickleball. UBS estimates there
  has been a 150 percent increase in the numbers of people playing the game 
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in the U.S.
  
  with 22.3 million people now on the courts
  
  
  The surge in pickleball popularity has led to the installation of hundreds of outdoor courts.
  UBS estimates there has been a 150 percent increase in the number of
  people playing the game this year with 22.3 million people
  now on the courts.
  
  Of those, around one-third are seniors who are playing at least
  eight times a year.
  
  have been completed into injuries sustained by players of the relatively
  new sport.
  
  Based on their analysis of these studies, UBS stated the majority of injuries occur among those aged
  60 and above.
  
  The most common injuries include strains, sprains and fractures, with the wrist and lower leg being the
  most susceptible, reported Barbara Beck is an avid pickleball player
  in Florida and she recently told
  
  'Anyone can get hurt out here, but for the most part, it's a safe game.
  It's a social game. We just all have the greatest time,' Beck told the outlet.

  Players use a plastic perforated ball, slightly heavier than a wiffle ball, and wooden or composite paddles that
  are about twice the size of ping-pong paddles
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  UBS estimates pickleball-related injuries could result in costs ranging from $250 million to $500 million in 2023 alone
  
  
  As the sport gains popularity, UBS has calculated medical costs for the year and is forecasting 67,000 visits to the ER room,
  366,000 outpatient visits, 8,800 outpatient surgeries, 4,700 hospitalizations with 20,000 follow-up 'episodes'
  relating to  injuries caused by pickleball. 
  
  A total of $377 million in medical costs can be attributed
  to pickleball, with $302 million (80 percent) in outpatient settings and $75 million (20 percent) in inpatient settings.
  
  
  'While we generally think of exercise as positively impacting
  health outcomes, the "can-do" attitude of today's seniors can pose greater risk in other areas such as sports injuries, leading to
  a greater number of orthopedic procedures,' UBS's analysts write in a disheartening
  conclusion. 
  
  Justin Tanton, a doctor of physical therapy in Texas, recently
  told the he has seen about 20 people visit in the last two
  years with pickleball-related injuries. 
  
  'They are jumping in with friends for all the hype,' he said. 
  
  The doctor said the injuries he has seen include broke wrists and hand fractures.
  
  
  
  There have also been cases of tennis elbow, and even a concussion from someone who fell. 
  
  Health officials have offered advice for players to avoid injuries on the court.
  
  They included wearing proper shoes that have a grip and rubber soles.
  
  
  Players should also make sure they warm up properly by stretching their back, hips, arms and legs. 
  
  Recovery time is essential as many players join in games multiple times a week, and health experts stressed
  the importance of getting needed rest.
