Volleyball
Event Drop’s volleyball kit features a full size (32’ wide) Park & Sun Sports net system that can be adjusted to official men's, women's, and co-ed net heights. The system must be staked into the ground, so be sure you have a grass or sand playing area - no hard surfaces.
Number of Players: 4 to 12 (best to have at least 4v4 unless you have very skilled players)
Skill Level: Medium to High
Energy Level: Medium to High
Playing Area: A full size court is 60’ x 30’, but we’ll do our best to create a slightly smaller court that fits in the space you have if need be. The area must be a grass or sand surface that stakes can be driven into to support the net and to hold the boundary lines in place.
Kit contents: Competition-quality net, ball, and boundary lines
Badminton
Badminton is a great backyard sport for your guests looking to be a little more active and competitive. Players compete as individuals or as teams of two to hit the birdie with their racket back over to the opponent’s side of the net.
Number of Players: 2 or 4
Skill Level: Medium to High
Energy Level: Medium to High
Playing Area: A full size court is 44’ x 20’ but we’ll do our best to create any size court in the space you have (grass / soft surfaces preferred)
Kit contents: Freestanding net, 4 competition-quality rackets, 3 birdies, boundary lines

Pickleball
Pickleball is often described as a mix of tennis, ping pong, and badminton. It’s become very popular with seniors and kids, and you can find courts at a number of local parks. See the embedded video for a quick overview of the game.
Number of Players: 2 or 4
Skill Level: Medium to High
Energy Level: Medium to High
Playing Area: You’ll need a hard, flat surface like a driveway or parking lot for this kit. A full size court is 44’ x 20’, but we’ll do our best to create a court that fits the space you have.
Kit contents: Freestanding net, 4 competition-quality rackets, 3 balls, boundary lines (drawn with chalk)
Backyard Baseball & Kickball
These classics are great for bigger groups. For backyard baseball, we recommend organizing a home run derby or trying the official rules linked below. Kickball has grown from the playground and gym class to become a popular adult rec sport, too.
Number of Players: 2 to 20+
Skill Level: Medium to High
Energy Level: Medium to High
Playing Area: Backyard baseball and kickball require large, open, flat areas. If you don’t have space for a full field, you might want to try a home run derby rather than a full game.
Kit contents: 2 classic yellow bats, 2 big bopper bats, 10 plastic balls, 3 heavy duty bases, home plate, pitching rubber, backstop net, batting tee (for younger kids), kickball, field setup
