Finding the right pickleball paddle can completely transform your game. Whether you’re looking for more power, better control, or the perfect balance between the two, choosing the right fit matters. At Performance Pickleball, we want players in Ottawa to feel confident in their purchase—and that’s exactly why we offer one of the most flexible demo programs in the city.
How Our Demo Program Works
We carry demo versions of almost every paddle we sell. That means you can test out the exact model you’re curious about instead of guessing or relying only on online reviews. The process is simple, convenient, and built around helping you make the best choice for your playstyle.
1. Reach Out or Visit Us In-Store
There are a few easy ways to get started:
-
Text us: 613-620-3956
-
Email us: info@performancepickleball.ca
2. Take Home a Demo Paddle for Up to One Week
Players can borrow demo paddles for up to 7 days. This gives you plenty of time to hit at your local courts, try different play styles, and see if the paddle feels right for you.
3. Simple $5 Fee per Demo
Each demo paddle has a small $5 fee.
-
Take one paddle = $5
-
Take two paddles = $10
This helps us maintain our demo fleet so that every customer gets a paddle in great condition.
4. Your Demo Fees Are Credited Back When You Buy
Here’s the best part—
If you purchase a paddle, the total amount you paid in demo fees comes off the price of your new paddle.
So if you’ve tried two demos ($10 total), you’ll get $10 off your final purchase. It’s our way of saying thank you for testing with us and ensuring you get the right fit.
