For a new sport like pickleball, many players are concerned about the amount of money needed to invest in order to own all the necessary equipment. Like badminton, athletes only need rackets, shoes, clothes and balls to be able to practice and compete in pickleball. All of the above accessories cost less than 2 million VND.
Pickleball racket and ball purchase fee
A racket is a must-have tool for pickleball players. Currently, there are many quality pickleball rackets on the market, ranging from 500,000 VND to 7 million VND.
When choosing a pickleball racket, players need to choose a racket that suits their budget, needs, and playing level. If you are new to pickleball, you can choose a cheap to mid-range racket. Expensive rackets are more suitable for experienced players or professional athletes.
For new players, rackets priced under 1 million VND like Passion Hybrid H101, H102 are very good choices.
In addition to price, players need to pay attention to weight, comfort and features on the racket to suit themselves. It is best for players to go to the store to try holding the new racket, instead of buying online.
Pickleballs are also relatively cheap. Specialized pickleballs cost between 50,000 VND and 70,000 VND. The difference between pickleballs and badminton, table tennis or tennis balls is that they are much more durable.
A pickleball can last for 3 to 4 days of competition or practice before breaking. Pickleballs are divided into two types: outdoor and indoor. Outdoor balls are designed to be more sturdy with 40 holes and are more expensive than indoor balls.
How much do pickleball shoes cost?
A pair of authentic pickleball shoes costs between 700,000 VND and 3 million VND. This price range is similar to badminton shoes and running shoes.
When choosing pickleball shoes, players should choose products with thick, soft soles and maximum elasticity. Shoes should not be too loose to prevent slipping. Shoes that hug the feet will significantly increase the feeling of movement when playing pickleball.
If the player owns a pair of quality badminton shoes, they can absolutely use them to play pickleball. Badminton shoes are quite anti-slip on concrete floors, and have thick cushioning, which fits the criteria of pickleball shoes.
How much does it cost to buy pickleball clothes?
A pickleball outfit costs from about 150,000 VND to several million VND per set. The difference mainly lies in the fabric and the manufacturing brand.
To choose a set of pickleball clothes, you need to pay attention to criteria such as: ventilation, sweat absorption, good elasticity. If the sportswear meets all of the above criteria, the buyer can completely rest assured to use it.
It should be noted that players should avoid buying outfits with too many patterns to avoid affecting the opponent. Pickleball clothes should not match the color of the ball.
Is it expensive to rent a pickleball court?
In Hanoi, the cost of renting a pickleball court ranges from 100,000 VND to 250,000 VND/hour, depending on the time frame registered with the court owner. Between 4pm and 8pm, the court rental price will be higher than other times of the day, because this is the time when the court attracts a large number of players. The rental cost during the week is also more expensive than on weekends.
Pickleball court rentals are much cheaper than tennis courts, but more expensive than badminton courts, about 50,000 to 100,000 VND/hour difference. If split per person, playing in pairs will be cheaper than playing singles.
In general, to play pickleball, new players need to spend about 2 million VND to buy the most basic equipment such as shoes, rackets, clothes, and balls. Court rental fees mainly depend on the frequency of play.
