USA Pickleball Ambassador Program

The USA Pickleball Association hosts an Ambassador Program

The essence of the USAPA Ambassadors' message is:

Play PICKLEBALL!

"USAPA Ambassadors promote the sport of pickleball and the USAPA in the Local Area that they have chosen to represent. They may be individuals or couples working as a team. The main prerequisite is a love of the game and the desire to share our game with others of all ages."

On Christmas Day 2007, The Great Lakes Region had 35 USAPA Members. Today, Christmas Day 2008, the Great Lakes Region has 139 USAPA Members. The Pickleball Players in the Great Lakes Region recognize and appreciate our USAPA Ambassadors and their efforts to promote The Great Game of the Great Lakes - PICKLEBALL!
