At Addict Pickleball, we believe that pickleball is more than just a sport—it’s a way of life. It’s the early-morning hits, the friendly rivalries, the laughter and connection that makes each game unforgettable. This passion for pickleball lies at the heart of Addict, a brand born out of friendship, shared dreams, and the relentless pursuit of something meaningful.
Where It All Began: A Friendship, a Game, and a Dream
Addict Pickleball started with two friends, Nick Sarabalis and Drew Stephan, whose lives were changed by a single game of pickleball. What began as a healthy and fun hobby quickly became a shared passion, a bond that grew deeper with every moment. Nick, with his drive for community and vision for the sport, and Drew, with his creative spirit and dedication to pushing boundaries, found a common dream—to create something truly unique that celebrates the game they loved.
One day, after finding themselves spending countless hours on the court and reflecting on the powerful impact this new healthy addiction began to have on their lives, they made a decision: they wouldn’t just be players—they’d be creators, builders, and storytellers of a new pickleball movement and culture. And that’s how Addict was born.
The Mission: Elevate the Game, Inspire a Community
From the very start, Nick and Drew’s mission was clear: show the world the power of harnessing a healthy addiction. The vision was clear, elevate the game of pickleball by creating high-quality gear that players could rely on, while building a community of passionate individuals who share the same love for the sport.
It wasn’t just about making paddles or apparel; it was about crafting an experience and a lifestyle that resonates with players on every level, from beginners picking up a paddle for the first time to seasoned athletes.
Their vision goes beyond the court. They dreamed of a brand that would bring people together, inspire friendships, and support the growth of sport in communities everywhere. Today, Addict isn’t just a brand—it’s a family. It’s a place where every player, regardless of skill or background, has a place to belong.
Addict Today: Building the Future of Pickleball, Together
Addict Pickleball has grown from a shared vision to a movement. What started with two friends and a dream has become a network of players, ambassadors, and partners who share a common love for the game all over the world. Each product is crafted with the same dedication and attention to detail that Nick and Drew “claim” they put into every swing on the court. Our paddles, apparel, and gear are designed with purpose, to meet the demands of players who expect more—more durability, more performance, and more style.
And the Addict family continues to grow. From local tournaments to social media challenges, from our ambassadors who inspire daily to our players who bring energy and heart to every game, the Addict community is the heartbeat of our brand. Every player is part of the journey, shaping Addict as much as we hope to shape the future of pickleball.
