Pickleball isn’t just a sport anymore — it’s a full-blown cultural moment. From Cubbon Park rallies to gated-community courts, Bengaluru has quietly (and stylishly) caught on to the paddle craze. And while some play for the competition, many of us are here for the fun, the social vibe, and yes — the Instagram-worthy moments. Enter Elephant Racquet Club, India’s first luxury pickleball and lifestyle brand that’s making your paddle time look as good as it feels.
🐘 A Homegrown Brand with Global Aesthetics
Founded by Riddhi Aggarwal, Elephant Racquet Club is not just about equipment — it’s about turning pickleball into a lifestyle. Each racquet is thoughtfully designed, drawing from Indian heritage while meeting global performance standards. Think fiberglass paddles with luxe faux-leather grips, a perfect blend of function and fashion.
🌿 The Classic Series
The first drop has already created quite a stir:
Banyan Breeze – A calming green print inspired by the mighty banyan tree, symbolizing strength and endurance.
Desert Rhapsody – A peach-toned beauty with block-print motifs from Jaipur.
Sundarban Spirit – Blue-hued, adorned with tigers and floral elements, celebrating the biodiversity of the Sundarbans.
Each racquet feels premium, durable, and yes — like something you wouldn’t mind flaunting at a Sunday match before heading for filter coffee.
⚡ For the Pros
For those who’ve already mastered the casual rallies, there’s the Power Series. The standout here is Dark Matter — made of 100% raw carbon fiber, it’s built for serious spin, power, and performance.
🏸 More Than Just a Racquet
What sets Elephant Racquet Club apart is its philosophy: pickleball isn’t only about scoring points. It’s about friendships, weekend rituals, and making memories. Their racquets are equally at home on the court or as memorabilia (one of their customers even joked about using it as a platter!).
💡 Being Bengaluru Take
In a city that thrives on blending global trends with local roots, Elephant Racquet Club fits right in. It’s not just for athletes — it’s for aesthetes, brunch squads, and anyone who believes weekend sports can be stylish too.
So the next time you’re planning a Sunday match in HSR or Koramangala, maybe ditch the boring rental paddle and bring a slice of Indian-inspired design onto the court.
