There’s no doubt pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in the U.S. today, with participants of all ages grabbing a racket and getting out on the court for some leisurely competition. One of the best parts of pickleball is how community-oriented and social the game is. Whether you’ve been hard at work mastering your dink shot for years or are brand-new to the sport, it’s a space for everyone.

Next to the fun of the game itself is the athleisure wardrobe that comes along with playing pickleball. A great pleated skirt or tank dress is a great option for getting out on the court, but if you’re fitting in a quick game after an afternoon of sunbathing on the beach, we’ve got good news for you: Your beach to pickleball wardrobe can be seamless, thanks to the following selections curated with the help of SI Swimsuit’s fashion team, including stylist Margot Zamet and assistant editor Liz Wentworth.

So, before you pick up your paddle (we’re particularly enamored with Club Recess’s new Neapolitan paddle if you’re in the market for some gear), go ahead and add the following swimsuits and athleisure staples to your online shopping cart.
