ABOUT
CONVERT PICKLEBALL
CONVERT Pickleball is a family-run business based in Bournemouth on the south coast of the UK.
As one of the first British USAPA-approved pickleball paddle brands, our purpose is to place the power of premium paddles into more players hands.
Our mission...
​To make high-quality paddles accessible to everyone that are just as competitive and enjoyable to play with as the big brands.
We believe you shouldn’t have to break the bank for top-notch pickleball equipment.
OUR STORY
Hi, I'm Adam, one of the co-founders of CONVERT Pickleball.
I've always been a racquet sports enthusiast. From playing club tennis to competing in county badminton and BUCS university badminton leagues, you could always find me on a court.
In 2023, my partner and fellow co-founder Emma (who previously had no experience with racquet sports) introduced me to pickleball after she'd spent the afternoon learning to play at a work team-building event.
We borrowed some basic equipment and had a knockabout, and just like that, we were hooked!
After only three games, I decided to dive in and enter The Skechers Pickleball English Open 2023. To my surprise, I placed 4th in the 3.5 singles 18+ category, and that's when I knew I was officially a pickleball convert.
​
Hearing so many stories from players transitioning from other racquet sports, like me, inspired us to create CONVERT Pickleball.
We noticed many pickleball paddles were becoming increasingly expensive, so we wanted to offer premium paddles at accessible prices.
​
Our goal is to become a leading brand and put British Pickleball on the map. And we hope you love playing with our paddles!
