We believe the fastest-growing sport in the United States is more than a game, it’s a gamechanger. Yet millions of people around the world still lack access.
Through our Global Pickleball Grants Program and PicklersGive online fundraising platform, under-championed communities with the most to gain — and least access — can get in the game.
We invite everyone in the pickleball world to join our team as a Pickleball for Good GameChanger — be it as a grantee, crowdfunding partner, donor, sponsor, or volunteer.
We invite eligible pickleball visionaries to apply to two distinct programs for funding and equipment support:
Global Pickleball Grants Program
Picklers Give crowdfunding platform
We prioritize communities that are under-represented in pickleball because such factors as socioeconomic, geographic, age, gender, or lack of facilities and instructors that offer adaptive, inclusive programs.
Changing lives isn’t a spectator sport. Pickleball has the power to transform lives, communities, countries, and the health of our planet. Our team needs YOU!

At Oktō, we believe that the love of pickleball should go hand in hand with a love for the planet and lifting every person and animal up to its highest potential. That is why our mission naturally aligns with Pickleball for Good and their No Planet – No Pickleball Campaign because we believe protecting our oceans and coral reefs is inseparable from protecting the future of the game we love.
Just as they are using pickleball as a force for good, we are committed to ensuring that every bag we make plays a small role in sustaining the planet that makes pickleball possible.
