What equipment will I need to play pickleball?

To play pickleball, you will need:

  •  Court shoes
  • Loose, comfortable clothing such as shorts or sweats
  • A pickleball paddle
  • A pickleball
  • That’s it!

As we mention in the video, if you don’t have a pickleball paddle or ball, you can often borrow an extra from other players. Pickleballers are a friendly group who like to get others into the sport, and they generally will be happy to share equipment with a newbie! You can also easily purchase pickleball paddles and balls from your local sporting goods store.
