You should never play with someone elses balls on the pickleball court.
Only play with your own.
But wash your hands and sanitise after:icon_wink:

I don't get it :confused:, you bring your own pickelball and no one else touches your ball..
So how is this bring your own pickleball game played?

We don't know that the man knew he had it at the time of playing.

As of today , there has been only ONE confirmed case of CV in Sumter County ......

No, there are currently 13 cases in Sumter County.

Gloves will do nothing if you come face to face with an infected person and they cough, sneeze, or talk to you. (you spit a little when you talk). Also, with gloves on, you still transfer to other objects. Think about it, you have gloves on, play pickle ball, touch rackets and other things, put in your car, then remove gloves and go home. If you touched something with germs on it and put it in your car, guess what you will pick up when you go home and remove objects? Pretty simple. Answer is, stop playing for a bit. Again, simple.

It's true. The virus is on pickleball courts

I personally know a 4.5 player who wears gloves and plays at burnsed all the time. I have emailed him directly to ask if he has heard anything about this. Whatever information he gives me i will post here.

Please remember, we are all in this boat together. Anybody that has actual information, should share every detail of it. It could save somebody's life, scratch that, several lives. If however you are just trying to pass on unverified rumors and or scare people, why would you do that? That's very cruel. I hope in the future people will at least go on the internet and try to verify the information with several different sources, before they post it.

That's my two cents, it's worth what you paid for it.

Good luck to us all...

confirmed with my friend who knows the infected couple personally. So if you play pickleball, you are at risk of getting the virus. And or giving it!

Who knows how many people have touched that pickleball? And then if you wipe the sweat off your brow or touch a towel and wipe your brow or...... Way too risky! Just stay in your house for two weeks and wait. I beg you. Good luck to us all.
