The Pickleball Craze: From Tennis Courts to Pickleball Nets, Boobs Fully Supported!

Share

Hey Girl, as the proud owner of sportsbras.ca and a former tennis fanatic (who’s now rocking four knee surgeries—yay me!), I’ve ditched the tennis racquet for a pickleball paddle, and let me tell you, I’m OBSESSED! If you haven’t hopped on the pickleball train yet, here’s why you should—it’s a total blast, easy on the body, and comes with a side of belly laughs. Oh, and speaking of support, the right sports bra is key because, well, the girls need to stay in place while you’re smashing it on the court!


A Quick Pickleball History (No, There Are No Pickles Involved)

Believe it or not, pickleball wasn’t created by a jar of dill pickles. It started in the 1960s when a few creative dads in Washington decided to mix tennis, ping-pong, and badminton into a whole new game. The result? A sport that’s grown into one of the fastest-growing fitness crazes in North America. (Thanks, dads!)


Why Pickleball is a Smash Hit (Especially When You’re 59 with Dodgy Knees)

Gentler on the Joints: After my knee surgeries, tennis started feeling like a full-contact sport with the floor, so I made the switch to pickleball. Less running, fewer aches, and a lot more fun! I can play for hours without needing an ice bath afterward. And I can focus on my game instead of... you know, adjusting the "assets" mid-serve!

Sneaky Fitness: Pickleball is like the ninja of workouts—you’re having so much fun, you don’t even realize you’re working up a sweat. It gets your core, arms, legs, and posture all in check without the “ugh, I’m exercising” vibe. Plus, I’m convinced it’s 90% laughter, 10% actual gameplay.


Social Butterfly Vibes: The real magic of pickleball? The people! Whether you’re rallying with old friends or meeting new ones, the game is packed with good vibes and even better jokes. Honestly, it’s way easier to crack jokes about "boob bounce" when you’ve got a crew who gets it!


The Secret to Success (Spoiler: It's Your Bra)

Now, let’s talk bounce—no, not the ball! Pickleball might be low-impact, but you still need the right gear. That’s why I swear by my ENELL Bra. It keeps everything in place, gives me that posture boost, and lets me serve, smash, and joke around without any "booby distractions."

👋 Picture this: You’re standing in front of your underwear drawer, clutching your favourite ENELL SPORTS bra like it’s a Timmy’s double-double on a Monday morning — pure survival gear. ☕️ Now, imagine a world where that bra couldn’t make it across the border thanks to tariffs, boycotts , and enough political nonsense to make even your most underwired bra feel comfortable. Welcome to the Cross-Border Bra Crisis , my friends — a story of boobs, borders, and bureaucratic buffoonery. Tariffs, Boycotts & Boobageddon Turns out, when countries start slapping tariffs on each other like a couple of drunk uncles at a wedding, it’s not just the big corporations that feel it. It’s devastating for small businesses — like ENELL and SPORTSBRA.CA — and you know who’s going to pay the real price? 👉 Our boobs. No ENELL SPORTS bras crossing the border means Canadian girls will be bouncing their way through horseback riding lessons, fitness classes, and Zumba sessions like a couple of caffeinated beavers . 🇨🇦 Without ENELL’s legendary lockdown, it’s only a matter of time before we’re forced to consider… drastic measures — like sewing together a couple of hockey jockstraps. 🏒 That’s right — the closest thing to high-impact support made in Canada is a jockstrap. Can you imagine tucking the twins into something designed to protect an entirely different set of equipment? 😳

Galentine’s Day: Cheers to Your Boobs & Besties! It’s Galentine’s Day, and whether you’ve already had brunch or you’re counting down to happy hour, there’s still plenty of time to celebrate the incredible women in your life. Today is all about raising a mimosa (or a coffee, or whatever’s in that tumbler at your desk—we won’t judge) to the ride-or-dies who have been there through bad dates, questionable haircuts, and the sheer tragedy of a snapped bra strap in public. How to Celebrate Your Besties Right Now Your best friends are the ones who hype you up, pick you up, and call you out when necessary (like when you text your ex… again). They are your therapists, your karaoke partners, your late-night snack enablers, and the ones who remind you that you deserve the best—whether that’s love, success, or a well-fitted sports bra. So take a moment today to show them some love. Send them a message filled with inside jokes. Drop off a coffee to their office. Venmo them $5 for a treat. If you’ve got plans later, go big: bring flowers, make a toast, and remind them they are a gift to this world. And if you’re apart, plan a Galentine’s movie night for the weekend—complete with snacks, cocktails, and an over-the-top rom-com lineup. Friendship: The Love That Lasts We often put so much weight on romantic love, chasing butterflies and grand gestures, but let’s be real—our friendships are the true love stories. How many times have we cried over a breakup, only to be scooped up by the very friends who knew it wouldn’t last? While romance may come and go, friendships are the steady, unwavering presence in our lives, sticking with us through every high, low, and “what was I thinking?” moment. So today, let’s celebrate the relationships that truly stand the test of time—the ones built on laughter, loyalty, and a deep, unconditional love that no candlelit dinner could ever replace.

Ever gone on a trip and realized you packed the wrong bras for that horseback riding adventure or pickleball match? Painful mistake!!! A friend of mine (we’ll call her Sarah to protect the unsupported) came back from a romantic getaway to Mexico with her boyfriend and immediately called me. Not to gush about the sunsets, the margaritas, or the dreamy beach walks—but to confess her massive packing mistake. Sarah had packed push-up bras for “nice vacation vibes” and ONE comfy pullover sports bra for lounging. She figured she was set. She figured wrong. Push-Up Perils & Pullover Problems The first disaster? Pickleball. Sarah and her boyfriend had a fun little couples competition planned at the resort courts, but what she didn’t plan for was her push-up bra trying to escape the match. “Brigitte, I swear my boobs were moving more than the ball,” she told me. “Every time I jumped or reached, I had to stop and fix them. It was NOT cute.” She finished the game—barely—but her boyfriend won, mostly because she was too busy readjusting. 🫣🎾 Then came the horseback riding excursion. 🐎 Sarah imagined herself riding along the beach, wind in her hair, looking like a movie star. Instead, she was bouncing uncontrollably, holding onto the saddle with one hand and her chest with the other. The pullover sports bra she thought would be comfy? Useless. Zero support. And the humidity made it cling to her skin like a wet swimsuit. By the end of the ride, she wasn’t feeling romantic—she was chafed, sweaty, and swearing she’d never leave the country without a good sports bra again. 😅🌴
