RPPA: A Central Hub for Recreational Players
As a USA Pickleball Ambassador, my advocacy for the RPPA is driven by its mission to unite and support recreational pickleball enthusiasts. The RPPA views its platform as a digital town square where players can come together, communicate, and engage in various activities beyond the court. Whether it’s organizing game nights, book clubs, or charity events, the RPPA fosters a sense of community both on and off the court.
Key Features of the RPPA Platform
Event Calendar: One of the RPPA’s standout features is its comprehensive calendar, which provides a searchable list of both local and national events. This feature enhances visibility for public-facing activities and helps players find events that suit their interests.
Vendor Directory: The RPPA also offers a unique vendor directory, acting as a one-stop shop for all things pickleball. This directory includes information on gear, apparel, restaurants, entertainment, medical services, and court builders, catering to every aspect of the pickleball experience.
New Developments and Future Plans
This month, the RPPA is set to unveil a new resource center designed to help communities secure new pickleball courts and maintain existing ones. The resource center reflects the RPPA’s commitment to addressing the needs of recreational players, who are often considered the heart and soul of the sport.
