Pickleball Gifts for the Big Dill in Your Life

Pickleball is firmly established as the fastest-growing sport in America. It’s getting buzz from Pickled on national TV, rapidly attracting celebrities and pro athletes, and is popping up at tournaments, rec centers, and schools all over the country. If you have been inspired to try out pickleball, you’re not alone. This holiday season is the ideal time to share your love of the sport with others. If you’re looking for a Christmas gift for someone who has everything, a gift for grandparents, or a gift for teens, pickleball is always the answer.

Big Dill Pickleball Co. offers a range of pickleball paddles and accessories to provide the perfect gift for new players, hardcore pickleballers, and everyone in between. We've also included a round-up of gifts from other brands we enjoy. Happy shopping, picklers!

Pickleball Sets 

Everyone new to the sport asks: “What is pickleball?” Once you learn the basics, we make it easy to get out on the court and have fun with friends or family.

Our pickleball paddles sets are ideal for anyone just learning. Plus, our paddles are USA Pickleball approved, meaning they can grow with you. Whether you’re learning to play pickleball or leveling up to play in sanctioned tournaments, our 2-pack paddle sets are the perfect present.

Our Original Paddle Set and Infinity Paddle Set come with two paddles with neoprene covers, two outdoor Relish balls, and a green carry bag. 

Gifts for Pickleball Players

It’s no secret that people get obsessed with pickleball. Many players have specific paddles they love. But even many expensive, big-name brands don’t come with covers! When you’re storing your paddle, tossing it in the car, or even racking your paddle up for a game, our neoprene padded covers are an awesome and necessary accessory to have.

Our premium pickleball covers are available in green and black. Each stretchy cover features a zipper for easy and quick access and secures around a handle of any width or circumference. 

Our universal paddle cover measures 8.5 x 11 inches (width x height). It securely fits most pickleball paddles up to 8.25  inches wide that are standard shape. (Not made for extra-long pickleball paddles, but they will stretch around even larger shapes). It is ideal for both edged or edgeless paddles from all brands.

Want to tell someone they’re a big dill? There’s no better stocking stuffer than our four-pack of Relish Pickleballs. These are also fun for your league, tournament prizes and as a pickleball trophy.

Pickleball Gifts from Our Favorite Brands

Looking for more pickleball goodies? We live and breathe pickleball, so of course we have some additional ideas for your pickleball gift-giving needs.

What's a dink? What are the rules of pickleball? Learn the game from simple basics to more complicated strategy. We love this Pickleball for Dummies book, which was recently released and available on Amazon, and think it’s required reading for pickleballers in your life.

Live the life of leisure on your next cruise, vacation, or pickleball destination trip. This awesome Pickleball in the Sun Beach Towel is ideal for the pickleball lover in your life. Be sure to check out their Destinations page, too.

Splurging on some bling for the pickle lover in your life? The GOOD ART HLYWD X Grillo’s Pickles Pendant is a fabulous and fun collaboration in beautiful sterling silver. This has to be the best pickleball gift for her this season.

Logging millions of hours on the pickleball court? Stay safe and happy in the sun and don't miss those smashes in blind spots. We reach for Blenders Eyewear sunglasses all summer (or year) long, because they have cool colors and unique designs. Plus, new customers can get 15% off!

Portable pickleball nets are ideal for setting up a court anywhere. We’ve been known to take ours to parking lots, gyms, and playgrounds. Most of these are easy to set up and take down, and are relatively lightweight.

Pickle Candy Canes are both delightful and fun. Perhaps they go to the losers bracket in your next pickleball tournament? 

Though it’s not as durable as our carbon fiber paddle, we love this Old World Pickleball Paddle Christmas Ornament. Hang it on your own tree, or give it as a gift to your doubles partner!

Whatever you celebrate, do it with pickleball. : )
