Default Tape and chalk.

That leads to another problem…Pickleball players marking up other courts with either chalk or tape. This is dangerous, as the chalk leaves a slippery area, and tape (of any kind) leaves a sticky residue. And no, don’t tell me painters tape doesn’t leave a sticky residue.

Don’t just think of yourselves, think of the potential injuries to others, due to your actions.
