Pickleball Paddles

Materials

  • Wood: Best for durability and large-group value
  • Composite/Graphite: Best for lightweight performance and advanced control
  • Plastic: Best for younger students and introductory instruction

When Choosing, Consider:

  • Player age: Younger students often benefit from lighter paddles that are easier to control.
  • Skill level: Beginners may prefer durable, forgiving paddles, while experienced players often want enhanced touch and precision.
  • Practice vs official play: Regulation paddles measure 15-¾ to 16”L x 8”W. Some leagues may require USA Pickleball Association (USAPA) or United Pickleball Association (UPA) approval.

Pickleball Balls

Indoor vs. Outdoor 

  • Indoor: Feature 26 larger holes with fewer perforations and a softer feel, creating slower ball speeds and greater control 

  • Outdoor: Feature 40 smaller holes with a more rigid plastic to withstand outdoor elements, ensuring they can keep up with more advanced play

When Choosing, Consider: 

  • Program use: Like with paddles, player age and skill level may benefit from the different conditions indoor or outdoor balls create.
  • Construction: Colors enhance visibility while seemless designs offer more consistent play.
  • Practice vs official play: USA Pickleball Association (USPA) and Professional Pickleball Registry (PPR) have official standards for size, weight, bounce, and performance.
