The Association of Pickleball Players (APP) provides opportunities for pickleball players of all ages and skill levels—professionals, amateurs and recreational—to compete in world-class pickleball events for the opportunity to win prize money and be featured on nationally televised broadcasts on CBS Sports and ESPN.
Since its launch in 2019, the APP has operated the first and only pro and amateur pickleball tour fully and officially sanctioned by USA Pickleball. The APP opened its official headquarters and player development center in January 2025 at The Fort in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., while its corporate offices continue to be located in Chicago.
The APP Tour’s 2025 schedule features the most robust pickleball showcase across pro and amateur competitions accompanied by youth development programs, grassroots charity initiatives and international partnerships to continue to grow the game.
The Tennis + Pickleball Club at Newport Beach was originally founded in 1956 as part of the Balboa Bay Club and Resort. It was a home away from home for Los Angeles’ famed celebrities and international dignitaries like Bob Hope, Ronald Reagan, and John Wayne along with a distinct list of iconic tastemakers and philanthropists in Orange County.
The club currently stands as the world’s largest private Pickleball Club and elite Tennis Academy boasting 31 Pickleball courts including 1 Stadium Court and 17 Tennis courts including rare European red clay.
