If you’re looking for a new sport to try, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve picked out the fastest-growing sports in the USA that are easy to learn and fun to play—perfect for everyone from beginners to experts.
Pickleball
Pickleball is a paddle sport played with a perforated plastic ball and a wooden paddle. It’s easy to learn, fun to play and growing in popularity because of its simplicity. The sport was invented in the 1960s by Joel Pritchard, who was searching for an indoor game that was similar to tennis but could be played on his own court at home. He nailed together two paddles from scrap wood, strung an old fishing net across his garage door opening and played games with his wife Betty Lou Pritchard (who later became known as “Pickle Lady”) while they waited for their kids to get home from school. Today more than 3 million Americans play pickleball!
Alpine Touring
Alpine Touring is a cross between cross-country skiing and backcountry snowboarding. It’s a growing sport in the United States, and it’s fun! Alpine Touring is a great way to exercise while enjoying the outdoors.
Winter Fat Biking
Winter fat biking is a sport that’s growing in popularity. Fat bikes are all-terrain bikes that have larger tires than traditional mountain bikes, which makes them ideal for riding on snow and sand. They’re also more affordable than regular mountain bikes, making them accessible to more people. Fat bikes are used for recreation and racing; if you’re interested in trying fat biking yourself, here are some things you should know:
- There’s no need to purchase an expensive bike! You can rent one from a local shop or buy one secondhand online (just make sure it’s been well maintained).
- You’ll probably want studded tires if you plan on riding any trails with lots of packed snow or ice — these tires will help maintain traction while providing extra cushioning underfoot so that riders aren’t bogged down by their own weight alone.*
Off-course Gold
Off-course gold is a form of golf that uses a ball that doesn’t travel as far. It’s a good way to get into the game if you don’t have the space for a full course, and it can also help improve your swing by making you focus on technique rather than power. Off-course gold doesn’t require any special equipment–just an old driver and some balls from your garage (or local sporting goods store). You’ll want to choose an open area at least 500 feet long so that there’s room for everyone’s shots to land without having them roll off into traffic or through fences.
Snowboard Touring
Snowboarding is a sport that involves descending a snow-covered slope while standing on a snowboard attached to a rider’s feet. You can do this in many different ways, but the most common method involves using two parallel metal edges that are mounted to the bottom of your board and digging into the snow as you slide down. The sport has been around since at least 1907 and has evolved over time into what it is today: an Olympic sport with more than 10 million participants worldwide and hundreds of competitions held every year across North America alone! Snowboarding was originally called ‘snurfing’ because people would use their old sleds instead of actual boards; later they started using their own homemade wooden boards which were similar to skateboards without wheels. Then came fiberglass boards with metal edges attached underfoot–these were called “snow skates” since they allowed riders’ feet freedom of movement while still providing stability during turns (which is why these early versions weren’t very popular). Finally we got modern day skis made out of carbon fiber material instead of wood which allows them weigh less than half as much as earlier models thus making tricks easier than ever before!
Skateboarding
Skateboarding is a sport that involves riding and performing tricks using a skateboard. It’s fun for people of all ages, and it’s also a great way to stay fit! Skateboarding can be an expensive sport–but there are ways to save money. If you want to start skating but don’t have the money for new gear right away, try borrowing from friends or family members who already skateboard. You can also buy used equipment on websites like eBay or Craigslist (or even in person). If you’d rather not spend any money at all right now, consider looking into public parks near where you live; many offer free skateboarding classes where they provide all the necessary safety gear needed for beginners like yourself!
Trail Running
Trail running is a sport that combines the excitement and unpredictability of cross-country running with the solitude and challenge of trail running. Trails are less groomed than roads, so you have to think about where you’re going and how to get there. It’s also more challenging because they’re not always flat or straight–you may have to climb over rocks or jump over fallen trees in order to get from point A to point B! Trail running is one of the fastest growing sports in America today because it gives people an opportunity for personal growth while being active outside (which we know is good for us).
Tennis
Tennis is a great sport for people of all ages, and it’s not just for the pros. Tennis can be played by anyone who has access to a court and some rackets. It’s also a fun social activity that can help you get in shape–and it doesn’t require much time or money! There are many different types of tennis: singles, doubles, mixed doubles…the list goes on. So there’s definitely something out there for everyone!
Surfing
Surfing is a sport that requires skill, strength and endurance. It can be done in the ocean and is growing in popularity with young people across America. Surfing is also a popular activity for those who live near beaches or coastal areas around the world.
Recreational Kayaking
Recreational kayaking is a great way to get out on the water, enjoy nature and keep fit. It’s also a sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages, fitness levels and experience levels. You just need to know how to paddle!
As you can see, there are many different types of sports to try out. If you’re looking for something new and exciting, then we hope this list has inspired you!
