About Us
Building healthier communities, one game at a time.
OUR STORY
Building stronger communities through the power of pickleball
Nonprofit Pickleball was founded on a simple idea — that a paddle, a ball, and a few friendly faces can make a real difference in people’s lives. What began as a passion for the fastest-growing sport in America has evolved into a movement to create healthier, more connected communities.
We experienced first-hand how pickleball brings people together — across generations, backgrounds, and abilities. It’s more than just recreation; it’s a way to strengthen communities, improve well-being, and inspire lifelong activity. That’s why we set out to make pickleball accessible to everyone.
