The Rally Meister Paddle 2 Player Pickleball Set is a great way to learn the game and get comfortable on the courts. These 7-ply maple wood paddles are lighter than most comparable options (with a 10 oz weight average) so players can use them for longer periods of time without straining their joints. They come with a convenient wrist strap to prevent slipping and a cushioned grip for extra comfort. This set comes with 4 outdoor pickleballs and a drawstring bag that can store all the equipment. The Rally Meisters provide plenty of power in every hit and have a classic shape that offers a generous surface area. Polyurethane grip creates a ribbed feeling across the handle for a firmer hold. Moisture absorbant properties and wrist strap prevent paddle from dropping. Tough wood surface lends itself to strong swings and resists damage over time. Weight is on the lighter side for a wood paddle which helps prevent "pickleball elbow." After exploring recreational play, the Rally Meister Paddles can be taken to tournaments since they meet USAPA guidelines for official competitions.
