I've have this bag for about six months, love it. I purchased this last one for my wife for Mother's Day she loves it as well.
I've tried a handful of pickleball bags over the years, but this one stands head and shoulders above the rest. From the moment I unzipped it (and yes — the zippers are solid), I could tell it was thoughtfully designed by someone who actually plays the game. Everything just works.
The pockets are brilliantly laid out — no wasted space, no awkward reaches. There's a dedicated spot for everything: paddles, balls, keys, even two water bottles that doesn’t fall out when I set the bag down. It keeps my gear organized without feeling cluttered or bulky.
What I love most is how easy it is to use. Whether I’m heading to the courts or packing up afterward, everything is right where I expect it to be. The materials feel durable, and nothing about it feels cheap or thrown together. This bag was clearly built with intention.
If you're serious about pickleball — or even just starting out and want gear that will last and won’t let you down — this is the bag to get. I honestly can't imagine going back to anything else. I look forward to showcasing this bag to everyone at the courts!
Great bag, well organized and extremely durable.
Nice size for say use
It is amazing premium quality bag
good customer service and easy return
Absolutely love my FORWRD Court Caddy Pickleball Bag! The design is sleek, functional, and clearly made with pickleball players in mind. The paddle slots, magnetic ball pockets, and hidden compartments are game-changers. It’s super comfortable to wear and fits everything I need for a day on the courts. What really stood out, though, was the excellent customer service. The representative responded promptly and professionally, super helpful and friendly.
It’s everything they said it would be and more - I think it might even cure world hunger! I use two slots for paddles and the other two for misc grips and braces. So quick to grab a ball from the outside. Added the shoe caddy and super easy to access - and no more “shoe dust” in the main bag. And it just looked looks cool hanging on the fence. Love that it has two external pockets for phone, Advil, keys, etc. and still room inside for a change of clothes.
Love this bag! I really like that the backpack straps are so comfortable. My previous bag was so difficult to carry on one shoulder as the strap was stiff and very uncomfortable. I also love how the bag stands upright and doesn’t fall over.
I received my Court Caddy and before opening it, the box told me you get what you pay for. Impressive! This bags quality blew me away. It is made incredibly well! The Court Caddy allows for many option of what I can stuff it with.
I love the look and feel. Well done!
