golfing- it isn't just for grownups

If you've been playing pickleball at your local court with a standard paddle and you're interested in buying some new gear, you have a few options to consider. While a lot of players simply upgrade their paddles by shopping for something new at their local sporting goods store, another option is to order a pickleball paddle with a custom design. You can find companies online that will turn your idea into a tangible product that you can hold in your hand and swing, and it can be exciting to show up at the court with your one-of-a-kind paddle ready to use. Here are three custom pickleball paddle ideas to consider.

Nickname

It's possible that you've picked up a nickname over the time that you've been playing pickleball. Perhaps an opponent or a teammate gave you a fun nickname in the spur of the moment, and it stuck to the point that most people at the court refer to you in this way. If you're happy with the nickname, think about having your custom paddle design feature it in a prominent way. For example, having the word printed on the surface of the paddle in a large, easy-to-read font can be an idea to consider.

Team Logo

Perhaps you've played pickleball with the same group of friends enough that you refer to yourselves as a team. Maybe you've even participated in different tournaments around your city. This can be a good time to come up with a name and logo for your team, hire a graphic artist to design the logo, and then get custom paddles made that feature the logo. Each member of your team can order one of these paddles, which can give your group a stylish and unified look when you show up at each tournament.

Emoji

With so many people loving various emojis, you might wish to think of one or more emojis that would work well on your paddle. You can simply choose to have your favorite emoji appear on the paddle, but it can be fun to think of a specific emoji that somehow ties into your pickleball game. For example, if you often make a shrugging motion to your playing partner when you make a lucky shot, you might think about having a shrugging emoji appear on the center of the paddle.
