  • China pickleball 2026
    China's KX Tech to Significantly Boost Investment in Pickleball by 2026, Targeting Global Market Expansion   Shanghai, China – April 5, 2024* — In a bold move signaling its commitment to diversifying into emerging sports markets, KX Technology Co., Ltd., a leading Chinese sports equipment manufacturer based in Shanghai, announced today that it will dramatically increase its investment in pickleball through 2026. The strategic expansion aims to position the company as a major player in the rapidly growing global pickleball industry, which has seen explosive growth over the past three years.   Pickleball, a hybrid sport combining elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis, has surged in popularity across North America, Europe, and parts of Asia. According to recent data from the U.S. Pickleball Association (USAPA), over 10 million Americans now play pickleball regularly—up from just 3 million in 2020—and the sport is projected to generate $1.8 billion in annual revenue by 2026. Recognizing this trend, KX Tech plans to allocate over $30 million in research, development, manufacturing, and marketing initiatives dedicated specifically to pickleball products by the end of 2026.   "KX Tech sees pickleball not just as a sport, but as a cultural movement with immense potential," said Dr. Li Wei, CEO of KX Technology. "With our strong foundation in sports innovation and manufacturing excellence, we are ready to lead in developing high-performance, affordable, and eco-friendly pickleball gear for players at every level—from beginners to elite athletes."   The company’s investment strategy includes several key components:   First, KX Tech will launch a new R&D center in Suzhou focused exclusively on pickleball equipment. This facility will employ over 100 engineers and materials scientists to develop next-generation paddles, balls, and court systems using advanced composite materials and sustainable production methods. One of the flagship projects includes a smart paddle equipped with embedded sensors to track swing speed, accuracy, and shot placement—features designed to help players improve their game through real-time feedback.   Second, the company will expand its manufacturing capacity in Guangdong Province, adding two new production lines capable of producing 500,000 paddles and 1 million balls annually. These facilities will incorporate AI-driven quality control systems to ensure consistency and durability while reducing waste by up to 40%.   Third, KX Tech plans to sponsor international pickleball tournaments, including a new “KX Global Open” series set to begin in 2025. Events will be held in the United States, Canada, Germany, Japan, and Australia, offering prize money totaling $2 million across the season. The company also intends to partner with national pickleball associations and grassroots organizations to promote youth participation and community engagement.   Additionally, KX Tech will roll out a digital platform called “PicklerHub,” a mobile app and web portal that connects players worldwide through training videos, live streams of pro matches, virtual leagues, and an e-commerce marketplace for official KX-branded gear.   Industry analysts have welcomed the announcement. “KX Tech’s entry into pickleball could disrupt the current market dominated by U.S.-based brands like ONIX and Selkirk,” said Sarah Chen, sports technology analyst at Global Sports Insights. “With their scale, cost efficiency, and innovation focus, they could make premium equipment accessible to millions more players globally.”   The move also aligns with broader trends in China’s sports economy. As domestic interest in recreational fitness grows, the government has encouraged companies to innovate in niche sports, creating opportunities for homegrown brands to go global.   By 2026, KX Tech aims to capture 15% of the global pickleball equipment market, with particular emphasis on expanding into Latin America and Southeast Asia—regions where pickleball participation is still nascent but rising fast.   As the world’s fastest-growing racket sport continues to evolve, one thing is clear: China’s KX Tech is no longer just manufacturing sports gear—it’s shaping the future of pickleball.

  • The Evolution of Pickleball: From Backyard Pastime to Global Phenomenon
      The Evolution of Pickleball: From Backyard Pastime to Global Phenomenon   Pickleball, one of the fastest-growing sports worldwide, traces its origins to a humble family project in 1965. Created on Bainbridge Island, Washington, by Joel Pritchard, Bill Bell, and Barney McCallum, the game emerged as a solution to their children’s summer boredom. Combining elements of badminton, tennis, and table tennis, the trio crafted a sport accessible to all ages. The name "pickleball" remains debated—some claim it references the Pritchards’ dog Pickles, while others cite the term "pickle boat," referring to a mix of rowers. Regardless, its quirky name became synonymous with fun and inclusivity.   Early Development (1960s–1980s) The first pickleball court was a modified badminton court with a lowered net. Early paddles were wooden, and the ball, a perforated plastic sphere, evolved from a whiffle ball.

  • The American Pickleball Association has updated its racket standards, triggering changes in the industry
    Washington, D.C., December 29, 2024 - The USA Pickleball Association announced on Friday that a number of paddles will be "phased out" in 2025 as they exceed the updated test standards. This fall, the organization introduced a new test to measure the Paddle/Ball Coefficient of Restitution (PBCOR) in order to limit the "trampoline effect" that could increase the speed of the ball when it bounces off the paddle.   The USA Pickleball Association stated that the increased force resulting from the "trampoline effect" might undermine the integrity of the sport by reducing the emphasis on skill, control, and finesse. The following paddles were declared to exceed the test standards and will be phased out and removed from certification starting July 1, 2025, and will no longer be used in approved competitions: Joola: Perseus 14mm Mod TA-15, Joola: Perseus 16mm Mod TA-15, Gearbox: Pro Power Elongated, ProKennex: Black Ace, ProKennex: Black Ace Pro, ProKennex: Black Ace LG, ProKennex: Black Ace XF.   In response to the announcement, Joola said it has decided to formally retire the Mod TA-15 Perseus as one of its competition paddles. Joola stated in a statement, "The decision to retire the Mod TA-15 is part of Joola's commitment to maintaining and meeting current industry standards because we believe this is in the best interest of pickleball. We know that the Mod TA-15 has become the paddle of choice for players of all levels in our pickleball community." Joola also said that the production of the Mod TA-15 has stopped, although the paddle will still be available for purchase online and in stores until the inventory is sold out. Joola further added that it plans to launch a new Pro series paddle in March, and these paddles will meet the new test standards of the USPA and the USA Pickleball Association.
