April is “National Pickleball Month

SURPRISE, ARIZ. (March 9, 2018) — To help promote the fastest growing sport in America, the USAPA Pickleball Association (USAPA) along with sports industry companies and organizations have named April “National Pickleball Month.” 

“Pickleball is just exploding with players and interest,” says USAPA Executive Director Justin Maloof. “Creating National Pickleball Month for the month of April will help us to promote the sport nationwide to people of all ages, and help to get Americans moving, active and enjoying this fun sport.”

National Pickleball Month is designed to boost all areas of the sport, from bringing more people into the game, to helping pickleball “providers” promote programs and leagues, to making public parks and sports facilities aware of the interest in pickleball in their communities.

The official hash tag: #‎nationalpickleballmonth‬

“We see this as a ‘rallying point’ to promote the sport throughout the U.S. on the local level,” Maloof says. “The USAPA has built up a nationwide network of 1,700 dedicated ‘Pickleball Ambassadors,’ and designating April as National Pickleball Month will help them to further get the word out about all the great benefits pickleball can provide not just to individuals of all ages, but also to communities.”
