If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to step into the world of professional pickleball, let me take you on a little journey.
My wife and I recently packed our bags and drove 7 hours from our base in Idaho Falls, Idaho to St. George, Utah. We wanted to check out the action at the Professional Pickleball Association (PPA) Tour. Seeing the sport at this level of talent is nothing short of inspiring!
Getting Up Close and Personal with the Pros
As huge fans of the game, the opportunity to witness the PPA Tour in person was a dream come true. We got to hand out a few Voxl Pickleball Whip paddles (shameless plug: they’re awesome) and meet with players and fans. It was a chance for us to show off our products and see the pickleball pros in action up close.
But the best part? Getting a peek behind the curtain at what makes the top players tick. We spoke with professionals about the gear they use, what they love about it, and what they’re looking for in a paddle. Hearing their insights firsthand is priceless, and it’s the kind of feedback that helps us refine our products to make them even better.
Why Supporting Local Pickleball Communities Matters
What really stood out to me was the sense of community. Sure, we were there for the competition, but it’s the people—the players, the fans, and everyone who’s part of this amazing sport—that really made the experience. There’s a genuine sense of camaraderie that comes with pickleball. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, everyone’s welcome. The best part is that it’s a community that supports one another, and I can’t think of a better reason to get involved.
So, if you haven’t already, I encourage you to dive into the pickleball world. Go check out a local tournament, grab your paddle, and get involved. Trust me, the energy and fun you’ll experience is contagious.
