Hyderabad Heritage Collection. Only 100 pieces available for sale.

Pickle, paddle and ball.

RAYA is a luxury sports house based out of Hyderabad. We make pickleball paddles and balls for people who care as much about the equipment as the game. Pieces built from carbon fibre and thin polymer, finished by hand, crafted in limited quantity and meant to outlast the season. Our first drop draws its face pattern from the carved interiors of the Qutb Shahi tombs, four hundred years of Deccan geometry brought to a court. Old city, new game. Sport, kept like an heirloom.

Steady at the net. Forceful from the baseline.

Built for the Deccan summerNo seam to split

Many balls are two halves bonded together, and they can split along the equator after a month of Hyderabad sun. Rosette is moulded in one piece from UV-stabilised resin and drilled with 40 holes in a pattern tuned on outdoor courts through a Deccan summer. It keeps a true bounce, and it keeps its colour.

The Qutb Shahi tombs, Hyderabad

Hyderabad has been in the luxury business for four hundred years. Pearls, palaces, hand-cut screens, and domes whose proportions are still exactly right. The city knows what lasts and what merely looks expensive. Pickleball is the country’s newest game, and almost everything made for it is disposable. RAYA sits where those two facts meet.

Built from things that last

Carbon

Carbon

Raw T700, pressed and thermoformed into a unibody edge. Left unpainted, because paint is the first thing to leave a paddle face.

PP Honeycomb

PP Honeycomb

Hexagonal polypropylene cells, cut to profile and sealed between the faces. They absorb the shock of the ball so the paddle feels solid and never sharp.

Thin Polymer

Thin Polymer

Cut from thin polymer sheet, textured by hand-checked mould and pressed onto the carbon. It bites the ball without harshness and stays true through a Deccan summer.

Join the exclusive Raya community the key is in the box

Every box carries a card, and the card carries a key. It opens the holders’ side of the house: what the bench is working on, what the next drop is, and a room for the people who already own one. Numbered pieces come with the door already unlocked.
