Walkaround

Court-Grade Pickleball Posts Built to Handle the Game's Growth

The First Team Guardian™ Pickleball Post System brings the same heavy-duty construction trusted on tennis courts straight to the pickleball court. Built from 3.5" OD schedule 40 high-tensile aluminum with a black powder coat finish, Guardian posts are lightweight enough to remove and store with ease, and strong enough to hold proper net tension session after session.

A Winch That Locks In and Stays Put

The internal worm gear driven steel winch is safe, easy to operate, and features a lockable or removable handle to keep the mechanism secure between uses. The no-backdrive design means net tension holds exactly where you set it, through every game and every court transition.

The Right Package for Any Court Setup

Every Guardian pickleball package includes a heavy-duty deluxe pickleball net built from the same high-quality components used on First Team's tennis nets. Choose PKPS for standard PVC sleeves, PKSO for exclusive hinged-lid sockets that close flush on multi-purpose courts, or PKSM for surface mount hardware where below-ground installation is not an option.
