Pool family
Get the kids off screens. All summer.
The first competitive water sport with a real rulebook. 2v2, three touches, win by two. Built for backyard pools, kids 8-16, and the parents who would rather watch a tournament than a TikTok.
Why pool families buy
A game your family returns to all summer.
Most pool toys get used once and sit in a corner the rest of the summer. baddleball is built to be the opposite: a real game with a real rulebook your family will actually return to weekend after weekend through Labor Day.
What you get: the inflatable target board, two regulation balls, the 12-page rulebook signed by founder Brady, and the carry bag that fits everything. No anchor hardware, no net, no posts. Sets up in three minutes. Plays for the whole summer.
How it plays: 2-on-2, in waist-deep water, three touches per side, first to 11, win by two. Designed so an 8-year-old and a 50-year-old can play the same game competitively.
What the founders say
Brady and Ryan grew up in a SoCal backyard arguing about pool game rules. Three years later they wrote them down. The rulebook is what makes this a sport, and it is the reason your kids will still want to play in August.
Pool questions, answered.
Will it work in our pool?
Yes. It is designed for pools around 4-6 feet deep and played 360 degrees around the free-floating board.
What ages can play?
8 to 80. Two ball sizes let kids and competitive adults share the same game.
How long does it take to set up?
About three minutes. Inflate the board, drop it in the water, and start the first rally.
