🏓 LONG BEACH COMMUNITY — I NEED YOUR HELP 🏓
Monday night (5/25), this orange Slinger Pickleball machine was stolen from our van 💔
Unlikely the thieves are pickleball players. Most likely it’ll end up being sold online somewhere.
🙏 HOW YOU CAN HELP:
• Keep an eye out on:
• Facebook Marketplace
• OfferUp
• Craigslist
• eBay
• Be cautious buying used pickleball equipment from someone who knows little about the sport or can’t answer basic questions about the machine
• Message is privately if you spot a suspicious Slinger listing
• COME TAKE OUR CLASS / SKILL CLINIC, JOIN A TOURNEY, OPEN PLAY OR LEAGUE. Seeing your face on the court will put a big smile on our faces... Much needed now
The machine has identifying features/markings that I’m NOT posting publicly (so they can’t simply be removed), but we can verify ownership.
This machine has been part of hundreds of classes, drills and clinics over the past couple years. Any help from the community means a lot ❤️
And yes… classes are still happening. We’ll just have to become the human ball machine again 😅 and we have plenty other pro tools to use to help you work in your technique

Hey everyone, I’m Karolina. If you play pickleball around Long Beach, we may have crossed paths. I run pickleball classes, skill clinics, tourneys & leagues through Long Beach Boot Camp & Pickleball
Monday night (5/25), my orange Slinger ball machine was stolen from my van 💔
I honestly don’t think the thieves are pickleball players. Most likely it’ll end up being sold online somewhere.
