LED vs Glow Pickleballs

Not all night pickleballs work the same way. Here's the difference, so you pick the right one for your evening games.

LED pickleballs (Social Rally House)

Each ball has a small battery-powered LED light inside. Switch it on by opening the small cap as shown in the included instructions, and it glows straight away. No charging under a UV light is needed.

Glow-in-the-dark pickleballs

Passive glow balls have no lights inside. They charge under a strong light or a UV flashlight, glow for a while, then fade and need charging again.

Which should I choose?

If you want a ball that lights up as soon as you switch it on, choose LED pickleballs. Want lights on your paddles too? The Two-Player Night Rally Kit includes two light-up paddles and three LED balls.

Good to know

Light-up balls and paddles add fun and visibility to evening games, but they don't replace a proper net, court or court lighting. Play where you can see the court, the lines and each other.
