Welcome to ACE Academy

Welcome to ACE Academy


Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in America, with millions of people becoming hooked the instant they step onto a court. We are no exception. ACE Pickleball was developed to bring a new edge to the pickleball world and provide players with premium gear and information.

There are plenty of other pickleball brands, but we believe none of them deliver the excellence that the everyday pickleball player deserves.

That’s where we come in.

What is ACE Pickleball?

ACE Pickleball is made up of Will Jamieson (a former high-level tennis player) and Brian McDonaugh, a pickleball-obsessed product and design specialist. Together, they are building a premium player experience by designing top pickleball paddles, signing some of the best pickleball pros to their brand, and delivering a blog filled with world-class content.

Our flagship paddle, The Spade is already being recognized as one of the best pickleball paddles in the industry. It’s an elongated carbon-fiber textured paddle built to provide full-court coverage and ultimate spin and control.  

You can learn more about The Spade, including its dimensions, here.

Besides premium equipment (that recently sold out!), we’ve also signed top pickleball professionals Gabe Joseph and Anderson Scarpa to TEAM ACE. These two embody what ACE will bring to the pickleball world, and we look forward to announcing more additions to the team soon.

And finally, there’s ACE Academy–our blog.

What is ACE Academy?

ACE Academy is our new pickleball blog (you’re reading it right now) designed to help educate new and advanced players on the finer points of the game. We will provide helpful insights on top-performing players, the latest news in the pickleball world, tips for taking your pickleball game to the next level, and so much more.

There are a lot of great pickleball blogs out there, and we think ours can become the absolute best.

We hope you’ll join us for the ride by signing up for our email list. And if you have any questions or want to contact us, we look forward to hearing from you.
