Our Story

Where We Started

Southern Pickleball Association's roots start in Georgia. In 2021, the Georgia Pickleball Association (GPA) started running tournaments around the state. Players seemed to appreciate reasonably priced, well-run tournaments where they didn't have to travel too far. As players from outside of Georgia started asking for GPA to come into their states, the idea of the Southern Pickleball grew.

Where We Are Going

Southern Pickleball is committed to expanding pickleball opportunities in the southeast by providing reasonably priced and well-run events and supporting community pickleball clubs.

Where You Can Join

We are currently operating tournaments and events out of 8 different southeastern states, including Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida, Tennessee, South Carolina, and North Carolina. We would love to see you out on the courts with us soon!
