XCELL PICKLEBALL

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “XCELL PICKLEBALL” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The owner listed is Xcell Pickleball, a limited liability company organized in Mississippi. The goods covered are paddles for use in paddle ball games, first used on October 1, 2023 and in commerce on February 1, 2024. A similar name would raise the closest concern for products that are paddles or related equipment used in paddle ball games. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “Xcell” or “Pickleball” in other contexts. The prosecution history shows a typical sequence of a non‑final action, an examiner’s amendment, and a publication notice before abandonment, but the mark was never registered. The latest status event is the abandonment notice on July 8, 2025, and no enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means there is no active claim, but the specific goods listed still present a potential concern if the new name is used for similar paddles.
