2 Player Pong - need help with paddles!

I need help - if you try hitting the ball with the sides of the paddle, it gets stuck inside the paddle and bounces around a bunch of times. How can I fix this so that it just bounces off of the side?

Squashy Ball: Enhanced Edition

This is squashy ball, as we all know it from PicoZine #1. As a first time coder I decided to just see what I could do with the game, so I added everything you see and hear past the ball and paddle movement. Big thanks to Alex Mole for the inspiration.

Stats save in between sessions. There are 9 skins available to chose from. I may add more in the future.

Squashy Ball v8.0

This is Squashy Ball, based off of the tutorial in Picozine #1. As a fun project I decided to enhance the game and make it more enjoyable and less buggy. This is my first try at coding something in this language and I have very little experience coding at all. Any feedback on the game is very welcome! Also any feedback on how to make my code more efficient/better would be good too. Thanks!

In the menu's, press X to go to the selected item, and Z to go back to the main menu. You can press left and right to choose your skin in the options menu, but I haven't worked out changing the difficulty yet so that is not available. For reference, I think the way the game is now would probably be Hard mode, as it is quite difficult.

One thing I would specifically like to ask is: how can I get rid of the trail that appears behind the ball? Specifically with the Christmas skin it is very noticeable, and I would like this to look nicer.
