Last minute Halloween costume ideas for pickleball players
Halloween is quickly approaching and if you haven’t finalized your costume yet for trick-or-treating, you better start now.
But don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. If you’re an avid pickleball player or love the pro game, here’s a few last-minute Halloween costume ideas for pickleball players with items you already own (and can quickly order on Amazon).
Costume Ideas for Women
If you have some Nike in your closet, now is the time to break it out. If you want to dress like Waters, all you have to do is wear a Nike skirt, top, visor, and carry around a Franklin Pickleball paddle. Then, put your hair into a braided ponytail, order three gold medals on Amazon, and Viola! You’ve got yourself the perfect Anna Leigh Waters Halloween costume that’ll make you look like you just won a triple crown.
If you want to take things a step further, you could wear a long sparkly white dress, get a blowout, and get creative and DIY her iconic custom pickleball Franklin bag and be Waters when she’s at the ESPY Awards.
One of the easiest costumes to recreate for women is get a track suit or wear your favorite matching sweat set, wear your hair in a ponytail, and get a gold chain for your sunglasses and be Leigh Waters.
If you have brown hair and wanted to dress up like Anna Bright, her costume would be an easy one to recreate. To look like AB, you could wear a fitted athletic top and skirt, a white baseball hat, court shoes, and carry around a JOOLA paddle.
Costume Ideas for Men
Who doesn’t want to dress like the G.O.A.T? A Ben Johns Halloween costume would be easy to create with the clothes you already wear to pickleball. Just wear a few different colors, get some compression pants and sleeves, walk around with a JOOLA and you’ll be looking like the best player of all time. You could add a trophy or gold medal too, just to really solidify your status as a top pro.
Another simple costume would be dressing up as Hayden Patriquin. With a clean-shaven face, you could wear all white or all black, a gold chain, a Franklin paddle, and a hat. It’d be extra funny to carry a trophy and a bottle of champagne, and call yourself Hayden Patriquin when he celebrated his 21st birthday in Vegas. Now that’s a last-minute costume that would get you some laughs.
McGuffin has one of the most iconic looks on tour, so he’d be a fun costume to recreate for your Halloween costume. Wear a white bro tank, neon pink shorts, a chunky silver chain, and tattoo sleeves for your arms and legs. If you want to really elevate the look, you can get a mullet and be throwback Tyson McGuffin. That would be incredible.
