Repurposing Tennis/Padel Balls for a Greener Miami

Did you know?

A single tennis or padel ball can take up to 400 years to decompose, contributing to landfill overflow.

Every year, over 125 million balls end up in U.S. landfills, creating 20,000 tons of waste.

Tennis and padel balls are very similar. Both can be reused in schools, nursing homes, animal shelters, and more.

Our Mission and Impact

Recycling and reusing old tennis and padel balls might seem small, but those little balls add up to a lot of waste if we don’t recycle them properly. Through local pickups and partnerships with amazing community organizations, we collect and repurpose tennis and padel balls to support schools, nursing homes, animal shelters, and more.

When you donate your old tennis or padel balls, you're making a meaningful impact. Schools use them for sports and to protect classroom floors, while nursing homes cushion walkers and canes to help keep seniors safer. Keeping these balls out of landfills gives them a second life — reducing waste and contributing to a cleaner, greener Miami.

Every ball you donate is a step toward reducing waste, supporting our community, and protecting our environment. Join us today and be part of the change! Visit our contact page to donate or request tennis and padel balls for your organization.
