ANSI serves as the administrator and coordinator of the U.S. private sector voluntary standardization system.
About us
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) coordinates the development and use of voluntary consensus standards in the United States and represents the needs and views of U.S. stakeholders in standardization forums around the globe. ANSI oversees the creation, promulgation and use of thousands of international norms and guidelines that directly impact businesses in nearly every sector: from acoustical devices to construction equipment, from dairy and livestock production to energy distribution, and many more. The ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) is actively engaged in accrediting programs that assess conformance to standards—including globally-recognized cross-sector programs such as ISO 9000 (quality) and ISO/IEC 17025 (testing and calibration laboratories) management systems.

Pickleball’s popularity has surged in recent years, but the sport was actually invented in 1965 on Bainbridge Island. Joel Pritchard, Bill Bell, and Barney McCallum are credited with creating the game because their kids were bored with usual summertime activities. Pickleball uses paddles and combines elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. Joan Pritchard, one co-founder’s wife, thought of the name pickleball because the combination of different sports reminded her of a pickle boat, which is a term from rowing used to describe a crew of rowers put together at random to compete in races. ASTM F3558-22 is a guide for builders, designers, facility managers, or owners of a pickleball court about the details and features of pickleball court fences. https://lnkd.in/ekbSAJgP #pickleball #sport #tennis #badminton #pingpong #pickleboat #astm #ansi
