Paul, a little fox, gets a pickleball paddle for his birthday. Excited to start playing, he runs down to the courts-but the big kids tell him that he's too little and doesn't really know how to play. Dejected, but still loving his paddle, he starts practicing on his own. One day, he notices his next door-neighbor (Jorja) practicing pickleball in her backyard. Quickly they become friends and practice together. Eventually, Jorja invites Paul to overcome his fears by playing down at the courts against the big kids. Paul and Jorja use all of the skills that they have been practicing to beat the bangers and win.
