The best pickleball bags for beginner to advanced players


As pickleball grows, long gone are the days of using tennis, racquetball, or duffel bags to carry your pickleball gear. Pickleball-specific bags are increasingly popular and are designed for the social, dedicated, or tournament player.

What is a pickleball bag?

A pickleball bag is a specially designed bag for carrying pickleball equipment. This includes paddles, balls, and often has space for other items such as water bottles, towels, and personal belongings. Pickleball bags come in different forms, including backpacks, duffel bags, tote bags, and sling bags. They typically have separate compartments for different items for better organization and easy access. Some bags, also have specialized features such as insulated drink compartments, ventilated shoe sections, and clips for hanging the bag on fences.


What bags do pro pickleball players use?

Professional pickleball players use bags that are specifically designed for the sport, providing compartments for paddles, balls, and other necessary gear. These bags are designed to keep the equipment safe, organized, and easy to transport. Some professionals may use general sports bags or even specialized tennis or racquetball bags, but the trend is moving towards pickleball-specific designs due to their specialized compartments and features.

How do I choose a pickleball bag?

When choosing a pickleball bag, consider the following factors:

Size

Pick a bag that can comfortably fit all your gear. If you only need to carry a couple of paddles and a few balls, a smaller bag, such as the Core Day or Core Team Bag might suffice. However, if you also want to bring shoes, towels, snacks, or other personal items, you may need a larger backpack. If you are a tournament player, consider the Team or Tour Bags for the additional room for everything you may need for a tournament. 

Compartments

Look for a bag with dedicated compartments for paddles, balls, and personal belongings for better organization. Insulated pockets for drinks or ventilated compartments for pickleball shoes can be beneficial.

Material

The material should be durable and weather-resistant. High-quality nylon or polyester are common choices. Also, look for reinforced zippers and sturdy straps for long-lasting use.

Comfort

If you're going to be carrying your bag around for extended periods, ensure it has padded straps and back panels

Style

Pickleball bags come in various colors and designs. Choose one that matches your personal style and stands out on the court.
