creating and increasing awareness of our
sport;
providing guidance to clubs and
municipalities on how to start paddle tennis
programs and then how to make those programs
successful;
promoting the sport among current players to
raise their level of passion.

California with expansion planned across the
country. The organization provides national
rankings of its members; maintains the official
rules and etiquette of the sport; regulates
standards for balls, paddles and courts; as well
