Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in America[2] and shows no signs of slowing down. The PPA is unique as it offers amateur players an opportunity to "Play Where the Pros Play." The PPA Tour stops are held at some of the highest profile tennis facilities in the United States and create a draw for amateurs to experience high quality competition while spectating the top professional players.
