Meet the "Picklemates"

As a fellow pickleball enthusiast, you know pickleball is more than a sport—it's a powerful way to forge lasting friendships and open doors to meaningful connections and opportunities.

At Picklemates, we're proud to support this vibrant community with innovative tools that enhance the experience and let you focus on what matters most: the people and the play.

Our journey began with inspiration from Dave Majick, a dedicated pickleball advocate and who crafted a homemade pickleball pickup tool to make the game easier for himself and fellow players. Dave's simple, practical invention sparked the idea that led to our development of a next-generation solution—honoring his ingenuity while pushing the boundaries further.

Introducing The Ball Pro — the only non-mechanical device in the world designed to effortlessly pick up pickleballs, tennis balls, and padel balls. Engineered with a proprietary unibody mold and solid-core construction, it's ultra-lightweight, exceptionally durable, and truly multi-functional for today's fastest-growing court sports.

The innovative stainless-steel recessed tri-clips deliver precise, reliable grip to securely capture any of the three ball types—every single time, without fail.

 

The Ball Pro makes practice, play, and court time smoother and more enjoyable, so you can spend less time bending and more time connecting with friends, partners, and the growing sports community.

 

The future of hassle-free ball pickup for pickleball, tennis, and padel.
