 Longest pickleball game: Jeffrey Baker and Justin Lawrence sets world record


NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla., USA -- Justin Lawrence, 25, teamed with Jeffrey Baker, 18, to play pickleball (a combination of tennis, badminton and ping pong) for 24 hours straight at the New Port Richey Recreation Cente , setting the world record for the Longest pickleball game .

The Guinness world record for the longest successful basketball shot measured 104 ft 7 in (31.9 m) by Elan Buller (USA) at Campbell Hall Elementary School in North Hollywood, California, USA.

  Guinness World Records also recognized the most basketball free throws in one minute (female): 39, by Ashley Graham (USA) at Tualatin Hills Athletic Center in Beaverton, Oregon, USA.


  "It was exhausting,'' Lawrence said, "but I would do it again, without a doubt."

  Pickleball is played on a court 20 feet wide and 44 feet long. It is divided by a net 36 inches high. It is similar to tennis, but players use a wiffle ball and paddles made of wood or composite materials.

  "After about three or four hours, we were starting to get pretty tired," Baker said.

  "I actually tried to play it for about five minutes and I have to say it's a lot more strenuous than it looks," said Parks and Recreation director Elaine Smith, who served as a witness to the record.
 "It's a very exciting sport, and there is definitely skill involved. It's like taking Olympic table tennis and increasing the size of the court."
