Pickleball Starter Sets
Getting your hands on a starter set is one of the highest value purchases you can make while shopping for pickleball gear. More often than not, these sets offer a pair of pickleball paddles plus some balls to get you and a partner right into the action.Gearbox Ultimate Pickleball Starter Kit
Just as the name implies, Gearbox's Ultimate Pickleball Starter Kit comes equipped with everything you need for you and a friend to start playing. Remembering the contents of this set is as easy as 3-2-1: 3 pickleballs, 2 paddles, 1 bag. Partner up with a friend or go head-to-head with the two paddles. They're made with quality fiberglass materials and feature a generous sweet spot for easy control and consistent hits. The GB1 pickleballs were made for outdoor play and can withstand a wide range of temperatures. Pack it all in with the included sling bag and you'll be ripe and ready for fun.
Joola Ben Johns Pickleball Set
The Joola Ben Johns Pickleball Set has a similar offering to Gearbox's starter kit. This set comes with a bag and a pair of matching paddles with 2 pairs of pickleballs, 1 pair designed for indoor play and the other for outdoors so you'll be ready to play anywhere, any time. The pickleball paddles feature a striking blue lightning design. Their fiberglass hitting surfaces deliver power and control while maintaining a lightweight and durable profile. Between the 2 pairs of pickleballs, it's important to know which type was designed for which environments. The 26-hole balls are ideal for indoor play, while the 40-hole balls are for outdoor play. Though it won't ruin your day to use the wrong ball for the wrong situation, the different ball types will have better flight patterns when used in the right settings and feel more fun to play with.
