Koosh Paddle Playset | Official Koosh Games Store
We designed the Koosh Paddle Playset to deliver instant outdoor fun for families, campers, and beachgoers who want a game that takes seconds to start and hours to put down. Each set includes two lightweight paddles with soft-touch grips and one genuine Koosh ball with our signature rubber-strand construction that flies straight and catches clean — no fumbles, no frustration.
Each paddle features a soft EVA foam face that absorbs impact without stinging hands — beginners and experienced players alike appreciate the forgiving contact zone. We molded the handles from textured polypropylene for a no-slip grip even when palms get sweaty during rapid rallies.
Sizing, weight & carry options
At 12 inches long and 5 ounces per paddle, the playset balances reach with maneuverability — kids as young as five can swing comfortably, and adults won’t feel like they’re playing with toys. We include a mesh drawstring bag that holds both paddles and the ball, with a carabiner loop for clipping to backpacks or beach totes.
The paddles nest together for compact storage in car trunks or gym lockers. Total packed weight is under one pound, so this set travels as easily to poolside as it does to backcountry campsites.
Care instructions & durability
Cleaning
Rinse paddles and ball with fresh water after beach or pool sessions to remove salt and chlorine. For stubborn sand or dirt, wipe foam faces with a damp cloth — no harsh detergents needed. Air-dry completely before storing in the mesh bag to prevent mildew.
Storage
Store the playset in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods. The UV-resistant coating protects against fading during outdoor play, but prolonged indoor storage extends paddle lifespan. The Koosh ball’s rubber strands remain supple for years with minimal care — occasional flexing keeps them from stiffening in cold climates.

Questions about your Koosh Paddle Playset
We recommend ages five and up, though many families report success with younger children when an adult plays alongside them. The lightweight paddles and soft Koosh ball eliminate the sting and frustration of traditional paddle games, so kids build confidence quickly.
There’s no upper age limit — adults enjoy the fast-paced rallies just as much as kids do, and the forgiving sweet spot keeps games competitive without requiring pro-level hand-eye coordination.
Yes, the paddles work with any Koosh ball from our lineup, though we designed the sweet spot specifically for our three-inch models. Traditional foam or rubber balls will bounce off the paddle face differently because they lack the Koosh ball’s compressible rubber strands.
For best results, stick with genuine Koosh balls — they’re engineered to grip the paddle surface just long enough for controlled volleys without sticking or bouncing unpredictably.
Rinse both paddles and the ball with fresh water immediately after saltwater or chlorinated pool sessions. For caked-on sand, wipe the foam paddle faces with a damp cloth — avoid abrasive scrubbers that could tear the surface.
Air-dry everything completely before storing in the mesh bag. We designed the materials to resist mildew, but damp storage in hot car trunks can still cause odors over time.
The paddles are buoyant and will float in pools, lakes, and calm ocean water. The Koosh ball floats as well, though strong currents or waves may carry it away quickly — we recommend designating a ball watcher during beach play.
If a paddle sinks, it’s likely waterlogged from prolonged submersion. Squeeze out excess water and let it dry fully — buoyancy returns once the foam core dries out.
The included mesh bag holds both paddles plus up to three Koosh balls comfortably. Many families add a small water bottle or sunscreen tube without issue. For larger items, we recommend a separate tote — the drawstring closure won’t accommodate bulky gear.
The carabiner loop clips securely to most backpack D-rings and beach bag straps, so you can free up hand-carry space for coolers and towels.
Traditional paddle ball sets use a hard rubber ball tethered to a single paddle, which can sting hands and limits play to solo volleys against a wall. Our Koosh Paddle Playset includes two free paddles and an untethered Koosh ball, so you play interactive rallies with a partner.
The soft rubber-strand ball is far more forgiving than hard rubber — beginners catch it easily, and missed volleys don’t result in painful hand slaps or runaway balls rolling into traffic.
Yes, we sell individual paddles and Koosh balls through our online store. Replacement paddles come in single units or discounted two-packs, and Koosh balls are available in various colors and sizes to match your playset.
Most customers find the original paddles last years with normal use, but replacements are helpful if you want to expand to four-player doubles games or keep a spare set at a vacation home.
