Pickleball and padel have become two of the fastest-growing pay-and-play social sports across Bengaluru (560095), Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Hyderabad, Pune, Chennai, Ahmedabad, and Kolkata. For court operators, profitability depends on two levers: off-peak court utilisation and high-margin weekend community leagues.

KIBI Sports is a sports business from India with two legs: sports equipment from 257+ brand partners sold through our own ecommerce and international B2B exports, and a sports platform used by athletes, academies and institutions.

Four Growth Levers for Pickleball & Padel Clubs

  1. Automated Weekend Mixers & Ladder Leagues (For Organisers & KIBI Live): Replace manual WhatsApp spreadsheets with digital pool-to-knockout draws, automated court calling, and live scoreboards — free until 31 March 2027.
  2. WhatsApp RSVP & Slot Filling (KIBI Matchday): Fill open 4-player court slots automatically via play.kibisports.com.
  3. Venue Listing & Two-OTP Coaching (KIBI Venues & Pro Services): List courts and certified coaches on the KIBI app (rated 4.2 stars on Google Play and Apple App Store).
  4. Wholesale Paddles, Balls & Nets (Pickleball & Padel Hub): Order bulk rental paddles, 40-hole outdoor balls, and custom club jerseys via sales@kibisports.org or WhatsApp +91 99428 21584.
