OUR STORY

Our Story

Dinkers & Bangers began in 2016 when we decided to combine Mary Ann's love of pickleball with Katie's love of design. We wanted to create pickleball-inspired apparel that would allow players to express their love of the sport - on and off the court. We officially launched our website in April, 2017 and haven't looked back. Since that time we have added new apparel items as well as gifts and accessories to our catalog. There have been some ups and downs, but through it all we remained true to our original goal and are excited to keep offering new products to our fellow pickleballers!

OUR MISSION

To create products that help players express and share their love of Pickleball - on and off the court.

Meet the Team

Mary Ann Sorrell
Mary has loved pickleball since her introduction to the exhilarating sport but couldn’t help but notice the lack of variety when it came to products for picklers and their loved ones looking to buy gifts. Her keen marketing mind began cataloging fun terms and sayings that she heard and started coining some of her own and an idea for Dinkers & Bangers developed.
Katie Jennett-Caska
Katie, a graphic designer and artist who owns her own marketing firm, was very pregnant with her third child when Mary Ann dragged her to the pickleball courts, told her what her vision was and asked her to join her. Always up for a challenge, she was eager to leave the somewhat restricted B2B climate for a chance to really have fun designing again.
