This is the story of a not-very good football club, a journeyman supporter and his seemingly never ending dream to see his team play at an iconic stadium.

July 1966. Wembley Stadium, England v. Mexico. Charlton enters the opposition half and lets fly. On a 12 inch black and white television, a seven-year-old boy sees his first ever goal and at the same time falls in love with the place where it was scored.

April 1967. Brisbane Road E10, Leyton Orient v. Swindon Town. The lads first live game. A thrilling goalless draw and his life was mapped out - he’s fallen in love with the Orient.

Two different passions and a desire begins to want to watch his team play at the legendary venue.

May 29th 1999. Destination finally reached. This is the story of all that happened to the little club in the east end of London and a passionate follower of theirs in the thirty-two years in between. This is the tale of a long road to Wembley.

I have much more expensive paddles but my wife has her best games while using these.
This paddle set comes with 2 paddles, 2 indoor balls, 2 outdoor balls, 2 extra grip tapes, and a bag large enough to fit all of these and small items like keys, wallet, etc. There’s a front zipper pocket, that I can put most of my accessories in. Then the larger main cavity that holds the paddles and everything else is also zipper operated. Now let’s talk paddles. These are 13mm width paddles. They’re very lightweight, making the flickability a lot easier vs other heavier paddles. The paddles weigh only 7.1oz. The surface is fiberglass and is frosted. Allowing for some grip to assist with adding a topspin or slice to the ball. Since this is 13mm you can feel a bit of dwell time, although it’s not as much as the 16mm paddles. The feed back and response of the paddles are excellent. They produce a loud pop as the paddles makes contact with the ball. The grip tape on the paddles as they arrived as well as the extra grip tape is absolutely premium. They are sweat wicking, ribbed and is very grippy. This is great for some heated matches. Your paddles will not slip easily. This is a great entry set to pickleball for the family without reducing quality and at a great price. I’ve played against my cousins and they have about a year of pickleball under their belt over me and I can beat them with their $200 paddles with these. That says very little but consider this set as an excellent quality stepping stone.

On par with everything else at this price point.
Disclaimer: vine review of an item I requested free* These are nothing fancy, about on par with the $20 Walmart paddles I've used. A bit heavy and not a whole lot of pop to them. Pretty smooth texture, but you can still get decent spin on the ball. This comes with extra grips and 2 indoor and 2 outdoor balls and a nice carrying case. The balls are nothing special either, but if you're looking for paddles at this price point you won't be finding fault with these balls either. A good buy for beginners or anyone not wanting to get too seriously into pickleball. Honestly most everything at this price point probably comes from the same factory with different paint on top anyways.

Complete starter set—perfect for casual play or guest use
This is a really well-rounded pickleball set, especially if you’re just getting started or want an easy grab-and-go setup. It comes with everything you need: two paddles, four balls, a carry case, and even extra handle wraps for when the originals wear out. That’s a nice extra and not something you always see included. I actually keep this set available for guests at a short-term rental, since there are pickleball courts nearby, and it’s been perfect for that. Everything stays organized in the case, and the adjustable shoulder strap can be clipped for either side, making it easy to carry to and from the courts. The paddles feel solid and well-balanced, and the included balls are great for casual indoor or outdoor play. It’s a convenient setup that doesn’t require buying anything extra to get started. Whether you’re a beginner, occasional player, or just want something ready for guests or friends, this is a great all-in-one set.

Great set to have for pick up games
This is a great set for casual play and quick pick-up games. It has everything you need to get started, and it’s nice to have it all in one place instead of buying pieces separately. The paddles feel decent in hand and are easy to use, especially for beginners or more relaxed games. They’re not professional-level paddles, but they’re not meant to be. For recreational play, they work really well and get the job done without any issues. The balls and included accessories are a nice bonus and make the set feel complete. Overall, this is a solid option if you’re just looking to play for fun or get into the game without spending a ton. No complaints from me—easy five stars.
