Standout Swag for Standout Events
Think back to the last event you attended. Can you remember the swag you got? Probably not. That’s the problem.
Now imagine receiving a custom pickleball paddle instead. Something bold, branded, and built to be used.
At Salted City Sports, we help event planners create wow-worthy moments through custom paddle design. Whether it’s a conference, offsite, or brand activation, a custom paddle immediately sets the tone for something different.
Versatile for Any Setting
Custom paddles work whether your event is sporty, professional, or somewhere in between:
-
Tournaments or challenges – Host casual games that get people mingling.
-
Retreats – Include paddles in welcome bags or team kits.
-
Launch parties – Celebrate with swag that makes an impact.
-
Client or partner events – Offer a meaningful takeaway.
And if there’s no court nearby? No problem. The paddle still serves as an artful, useful piece of branded gear.
Full-Brand Customization
Salted City Sports paddles aren’t “semi-custom” or slapped together. You get full-surface graphic design built around your brand or event theme. They reflect your colors, values, and vibe.
Pair that with high-quality materials and sleek packaging, and you’ve got a premium experience from unboxing to gameplay.
ROI That Goes Beyond the Event
Most event giveaways have a limited shelf life. Once the conference wraps or the swag bag is emptied, the connection ends. But a custom pickleball paddle doesn’t just get tossed in a drawer—it becomes part of the attendee’s lifestyle.
Every time they step onto a court, your brand shows up with them. That’s not just swag—that’s an ongoing brand impression. Whether they’re playing with friends, joining a local league, or posting a game-day selfie, your logo is in the mix.
This kind of staying power is hard to find in event marketing. It transforms your one-day activation into long-term brand visibility.
Make Your Event Stick with Playable Swag
Swag should reflect the energy of your event. Pickleball paddles are more than functional gifts—they’re brand activators. They turn passive attendees into active participants.
And when the event is over, your paddle travels home with them, extending your brand reach into their everyday lives.
Events don’t need more throwaway merch. They need meaningful moments. A custom paddle is that moment.
With every swing, you're not just giving them a paddle—you're giving them a branded memory that sticks. That’s how you turn events into lasting impressions.
