4Joy Paddles is a female-owned pickleball paddle company based in Riverside, Connecticut, founded by artist and brain tumor survivor Stacey Cleary and launched in January 2024. The paddles pair serious construction with artist-drawn faces: thermoformed T700 carbon fiber builds with foam-injected edges, cushioned custom handles under vegan leather grips, and full USAP approval for tournament play. The Premio series ($169.99) and wider-bodied Amp4 series come in original designs from tropical palms to a Susan G. Komen DinkForPink edition, and a portion of proceeds goes to health causes including breast and ovarian cancer research and the Cure Alzheimer’s Fund. Custom and co-branded paddles are available for teams and events. Orders ship from 4joypaddles.com and Amazon.
