Welcome to Eleven Zero Sports: Pickleball Gear Designed by Pros, Built for You

At Eleven Zero Sports, we're more than a pickleball brand. We're a team of competitive players obsessed with high performance gear that gives you a real edge on the court.

Founded by PPA pro Camila Zilveti and cofounder Brian Kerr, Eleven Zero was created with one mission: design the highest quality pickleball gear for serious players who demand more from their equipment. Camila brings the tour pro's read on what wins points. Brian brings an engineer's obsession with how a paddle is actually built. Whether you're chasing tournament points or just want to outplay your club rivals, we're here to improve your game.

Why we built Eleven Zero

Most pickleball paddles on the market are made by brands that never step on the court. We decided to change that.

Our paddles aren't just engineered. They're battle tested by pros. Every curve, core, and surface is designed to deliver optimal power, control, and spin. We also apply the same mindset to accessories and gear: bags that fit your full tournament loadout, grips that hold up under pressure, and paddle weight kits to fine tune your performance.

No fluff. No gimmicks. Just gear that works.

What makes Eleven Zero different?

  • Pro designed gear: Created and used by professional athletes
  • High end materials: Carbon and fiberglass faces, foam and honeycomb cores, and thermoformed construction
  • Built for competitors: Our hero paddle carries USA Pickleball (USAP) and UPA-A dual certification for tournament play
  • Refined performance: Big sweet spots, max spin, controlled power
  • Modern design: Sleek aesthetics without sacrificing function

Whether you're looking for a carbon fiber pickleball paddle, a bag that can hold all your gear (and then some), or accessories that actually make a difference, you'll find it here.

Who we serve

Our gear is built for intermediate and advanced players who want to play better. If you're the kind of player who wants to feel confident with every swing and never guess whether your paddle will deliver, this is the gear for you.

You're not a beginner anymore. You want control, consistency, and tech you can trust. That's what we build.

We'll be sharing expert tips, gear breakdowns, and stories from the frontlines of competitive pickleball on this blog. Whether you're tuning in for tactical insights or looking for the next paddle upgrade, you're in the right place.
