Host or sponsor a pickleball event

Two ways for a Central Coast business to work with us. Host an event at your venue and we bring the players, the format and the hosts. Or sponsor an event we are already running and reach that group without providing a court. Both route through one short form.

Decide these first

Host at your venue

You have courts, or space that can take temporary nets, and quiet hours you would rather fill. We bring the players, run the format and handle the day. Your side is the space, and telling your own audience it is happening.

Sponsor an event

No courts needed. You back an event we are already running and reach the people at it, which suits food and drink, retail, wellness and anyone whose customers look like the room.

What we ask for

Distribution. Your social, your list, your foot traffic. That is the trade: your reach for the event, our players and production. It is the part that decides whether an event fills.

How a partner event runs

The same format we use everywhere, which means you are not being asked to organise anything or to know the rules.

We bring paddles, balls and nets where the venue needs them.
Players sign up by text, so there is no clipboard at your door and no app for anyone to download.
A host runs the games and keeps them even, so beginners and regulars mix.
Live scores go to every phone, which is what keeps people there and posting.
You get the room, the photos and the follow-on traffic.

Questions

What kinds of businesses can host a pickleball event?

Anywhere with courts, or with space that can take temporary nets: clubs, resorts, breweries with a yard, community centres and sports facilities. If you are not sure whether your space works, ask and we will tell you honestly.

What does it cost a business to host or sponsor?

It depends on which side you are on and what you are providing, so it is agreed on a call rather than priced off a page. The usual trade is your space or your audience in exchange for the event and the players it brings.

Do we need to know anything about pickleball?

No. We bring the equipment, the format and the people who run it. Your side is the space or the reach.

Do you need insurance to host a private event on public courts?

Usually yes. Most public venues require whoever is hiring the courts to carry liability cover for the day, and many cities run a portal that sells exactly that policy in a few minutes. If we host the event it is covered by our own annual policy instead.

Two ways in

Tell us which one you are

One short form for both paths. Say whether you have a space or an audience and we will come back with what an event at your place would look like.
