A group of 12 high schoolers in Pacific Palisades, California, have launched a world-record attempt to recycle old tennis and pickleballs.
After learning that hundreds of millions of balls end up in landfills each year, these student-athletes created the “Another Bounce” campaign to collect and repurpose sports gear that usually takes centuries to decompose.
They’re now on a mission to collect as many balls as possible — and keep them out of landfills. The final tally will be held at a collection event on April 19th — and we’ll see if they’ve achieved the Guinness World Record they’ve been working toward.
