Step off the grid. Onto the court.
404 Pickleball is a club and gear shop in Caslano, Ticino: two courts, lessons, gear, and a growing community.
Our Story
About a year ago, I saw pickleball on Instagram and wanted to try it. There were no courts near me, and nowhere in Ticino sold a paddle. So I found a spot in Caslano, close to home, and set up a temporary court just to play. The game turned out to be ridiculously fun, close to addictive, and one temporary court turned into building a club around it. I started alone, with one court and enough conviction to keep going.
Designed in Switzerland
404 Pickleball designs its own paddles and equipment in Ticino, the first Swiss pickleball brand to do so. Production takes place outside Switzerland.

Still shows up to almost every open play session. If someone's explaining the kitchen rule for the third time that day, it's probably him.
