The average playing age is a factor, but I’ve heard of young people fucking themselves up too. I assume since it’s a smaller court, there’s a lot of hard stopping, pivoting, etc. Lots of stress on the ankles and knees over a short interval. Tennis is more fluid movement on a bigger court.

i would decline hard court tennis at this point

i need a softer surface

i don't run anymore for this reason ... i bike

too much ankle and knee pain the next day, even if i don't have an incident

basketball too many rapid motions suddenly, too easy to sprain a muscle ... pickelball will combine those two worst things

i need fluid things like swimming, biking, beer drinking, shuffleboard, and bocce

My ankles and knees are fine, but my pelvic area and butt muscles are still stiff two days later.

So I been in hospital for two days with a suspected stroke.
Turns out after an mri, it’s the disks in my neck got injured (and I remember exactly when and where) were bulging inwards and causing stroke like effects or mimicking as the doctor put it. So now I have loads of injections and physio or possibly surgery to look forward to.
I don’t even mind. It wasn’t a stroke. They’re my deepest fear them. Just give me the cyanide tablet if that happens. I don’t wanna sit around in a vegetative state slowly rotting away
