Franklin Sports Jet Pickleball Paddle & Ball Set, 2 Paddles + 2 Outdoor Balls

Outdoor. They use the smaller, more numerous holes and the harder shell that stand up to wind and asphalt.

Indoor balls have larger holes and a softer plastic; they are sold separately if you play in a gym.

Around 4.25 inches in circumference, which fits most adult hands and is the common recreational size.

If you want it thicker, an overgrip adds roughly an eighth of an inch.

This is a recreational set built for open play, backyards, and learning the game.

Sanctioned tournaments require a paddle on the current USA Pickleball approved list, so check the event's rules before entering.

The set has two paddles, so doubles needs a second set or two extra paddles.

Two players can start immediately with what is in the box.

Wipe the face after dusty sessions so grit does not sand down the texture, and never leave paddles in a hot car, which can soften the core adhesive.
