Update: 2025-12-07
Description
Carmel-by-the-Sea becomes the first California city to ban pickleball due to noise complaints, despite attempts to find a compromise. The sports distinctive sound, likened to a car backfiring, proved too disruptive for residents. Other cities have tried different solutions, such as quieter paddles and sound-dampening balls, but Carmel opted for a ban, disappointing players and limiting access to the sport.
