Slinger Padel Bag and Oscillator

Designed and Developed by Slinger®. Patent Pending. Covered by International Patent Applications 2709 N. Rolling Road Suite 138 Windsor Mill 21244 MD USA

I am Joe. Founder of Slinger®.
Like you, racquet sports are a huge part of my life. I constantly found myself challenged to find the right playing partners, so I would use my club’s ball machine. It was a pain having to learn how to use it, drag it out of its storage, and plug it in, and set it up each time. I figured there was a better way to do this, and this is how the Slinger Bag was born. A lightweight, transportable, versatile, and affordable ball launcher for Padel. Not only that, but I wanted something to store all of my Padel gear in one place, too. I hope you enjoy your Slinger as much as I do.
Thank you for being on this journey with me.

  • Joe Kalfa Founder

I am Mike. CEO of Slinger®.
I have been involved in racquet sports all of my life, from playing and coaching to running businesses. I know the challenge our sport faces in terms of keeping people playing and bringing in new players to the sport. The majority of people who leave the sport do so because they lack a consistent and quality playing partner. Slinger is solving this problem for the sport. We have put in thousands of hours of design, prototyping, and testing into the Slinger Bag, taking Joe’s idea and building a next-generation Padel ball launcher. Thank you for supporting Slinger®. Designed by Players for Players.
