Pickleball Gifts

What works here is glassware and towels — because they avoid the three ways a pickleball gift usually fails. No sizing (apparel and shoes are a returns problem wrapped in wrapping paper), no equipment opinions (anyone past their first season has strong views on paddle weight and grip, and your guess will be wrong), and they get used in front of other people, which is how a gift gets remembered.

By price

• $7 — printed cotton bar towels, including the holiday designs.
• $10.50 — stemless printed glasses. “Dink Responsibly” is the best joke and the safest bet if you do not know them well.
• $17.50 — a glass and a matching towel. Reads as a set, because it is.
• December — “Ho, Ho, Ho”, “Deck The Halls” and “They Never Let Poor Rudolph Play Any Pickleball Games”.

For the player who already owns eleven pickleball-branded objects, the better move is something used at the drinks afterwards rather than on the court. That argument, and the bundles, are in what to buy a pickleball player.

Questions

What are good pickleball gifts for women and men?

The same things work for both: stemless glasses ($10.50) and cotton bar towels ($7) printed with jokes any player gets, like “The Kitchen Is Closed”, “Dill With It” and “I Can’t. I Have Pickleball”.

Do you have pickleball wine glasses?

Yes. The glasses are stemless, so they suit wine as well as anything else poured after a match, at $10.50 a design.

What pickleball gifts are under $20?

Everything here. A glass and its matching towel together come to $17.50.
