At just 14 years old, Caymanian standout Dylan Royert is already establishing himself as one of the most exciting young talents in pickleball. Recently signed as a sponsored athlete by Ninja Pickleball Club, Dylan competes with the NINJA Brazilian Samba Paddle, bringing energy, skill, and maturity far beyond his years to every match he plays. His growing list of accomplishments includes winning tournaments at Pickleball Cayman, including the highly competitive Moneyball Pickleball Tournament, as well as capturing gold at the international Rally at the Rock Tournament in Bermuda. That victory was especially significant as it marked Dylan’s first pickleball tournament outside of the Cayman Islands and showcased his ability to compete and win on an international stage. Just as Ninja Pickleball Club helped open doors for rising star Caian Matos, the company is committed to doing the same for Dylan by bringing him to the U.S. Open Pickleball Championships, where he will have the opportunity to test his game against some of the best players in the world. With his talent, work ethic, and passion for the sport, Dylan represents the future of pickleball in the Cayman Islands and beyond.

Ninja Pickleball Club is rapidly expanding beyond the United States and establishing itself as a truly international brand. Already gaining momentum in Brazil through the success of the Brazilian Samba Signature Paddle, Ninja has now officially entered the Cayman Islands market, with its paddles available in the pro shop at Pickleball Cayman, one of the Caribbean’s premier pickleball destinations. The brand’s international growth doesn’t stop there. Ninja Pickleball Club has also signed its first sponsored athlete in the Cayman Islands, 14-year-old phenom Dylan Royert, one of the most promising young players in the region. Dylan’s dedication, talent, and passion for the game perfectly represent the future of pickleball and the values of the Ninja brand. Together, these milestones mark the beginning of an exciting new chapter as Ninja Pickleball Club continues to grow its global footprint and develop the next generation of champions.

The NINJA Brazilian Samba was made famous by one of the most exciting young talents in pickleball, Caian Matos. At just 16 years old, Caian teamed up with Michael Van Dusen (60+) after Ninja Pickleball Club brought the unlikely duo together for the 2026 US Open. Despite the nearly 45-year age difference, the pair showcased incredible chemistry, determination, and skill on their way to capturing the US Open Gold Medal. Caian competed using the very first paddle in the Ninja Flag Series—the Brazilian Samba Signature Paddle—while Michael trusted the championship-winning NINJA Green Foam Gen 5. Their remarkable victory proved that talent, teamwork, and the right equipment can overcome any obstacle. Today, Caian’s signature proudly appears on the Brazilian Samba paddle as a tribute to both his championship performance and his distinction as the first athlete ever sponsored by Ninja Pickleball Club.

Caian DeMatos just dropped a new kind of win—he sold the very first NINJA paddle in Brazil, and of course he did it to a fellow grinder and friend who lives on the court. DeMatos is putting NINJA on the map in South America one player at a time. Game on.

"The Ninja ASSASSIN paddle is a must-have for any serious player. The spin I can generate with it is insane, and it's helped me dominate at the net. The weight and balance are perfect for aggressive plays, yet it still feels so controlled. I've also tried the Ninja JONIN paddle, which is great for beginners but the ASSASSIN gives me the edge I need in competitive matches. This is a game-changer!"

"The Ninja DROGON paddle has completely changed my game! The power and precision it delivers are unmatched, and the grip feels like it was custom-made for my hand. I've been hitting cleaner, more consistent shots than ever before. It pairs perfectly with the NinjaPro Pickleballs—together, they make every rally feel professional. I'll be sticking with this paddle for a long time!"

"As a beginner, I'm loving the Ninja JONIN paddle! It's lightweight and easy to control, helping me focus on improving my technique without feeling overwhelmed. The paddle is super forgiving and I've been making big strides in my game because of it. I can't wait to try the Ninja WHITE ICE paddle once I've leveled up a bit—it looks like the perfect step up. For the now, the JONIN is exactly what I need."
