What is Pickleball?
Fun, social and friendly. The rules are simple and the game is easy for beginners to learn, but can develop into a quick, fast-paced, competitive game for experienced players.
About APA Pickleball
The Amateur Pickleball Association and APA Tournaments run youth (8-18U), a “Collegiate Series” (current college students), and an open series (by skill level) of pickleball events around the country. These events are hosted at NCAA varsity tennis facilities, in most cases, and destination tennis/pickleball venues.
APA events follow the USA Pickleball Association rules and guidelines for play as USA Pickleball is the national governing body for the sport. The format for each event may differ from location to location but will generally include “instruction” for the entry level divisions and competitive tournament play.
Check out the event details page for each posted event for more additional information.
