Pickleball Australia Association

Pickleball Australia Association The Governing Body of pickleball in Australia. Growing the game with our States, Clubs and Community. We are the home of Australian pickleball.

Our Official Ball - Franklin Pickleball

Global Pickleball Federation Affiliated We’ve held the vision for pickleball in Australia since the inception of play down under. We’ve built a movement – long before others noticed things were moving. Fuelled by passion and
community, we’ve built pathways and partnerships, locally and globally. We’ve transformed
unused spaces, dinked in driveways whilst u

shering in a new area of facility development, and
unstoppable membership growth. We’ve provided governance, oversight & integrity whilst protecting and nurturing the true spirit and
outrageous fun of pickleball. We’ve fostered growth in participation, volunteering, grassroots, social
and elite play. It was tough to take a nation from “What on earth is pickleball?” to “I LOVE pickleball,”
but we did it. We are the heartbeat of this sport in Australia, a diverse and active community supported by
robust governance, and professionalism that extends from the very grass roots to the growing elite
levels of the sport.

👑 𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗣𝗟𝗘 𝗖𝗥𝗢𝗪𝗡 𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗥𝗧 👑

We had a Triple Crown awarded in Victoria last weekend at the HUSTL Warrnambool Pickleball Open 2026!

Jan Tepper took home a great Triple Crown, winning gold in:
- 50+ Women's Singles DUPR: 2.99 and under
- 50+ Women's Doubles DUPR: 2.99 and under with Darlene Armstrong
- 19+ Mixed Doubles DUPR: 2.99 and under with Hitesh Sharma

The 'Highlanders' also had plenty of medal winners, including Justin Kammerer and Roger Lane, who won a handful of golds themselves.

Well done to Jan and all of the incredibly hard working organising team and volunteers for another fantastic event.

We had two new Triple Crowns awarded at the end of May!

Brett Dean achieved an incredible Triple Crown in the top end, winning gold in:
- Open Men's Singles Combined (AR)
- Open Men's Doubles Combined (AR) with Gavin Porter
- Open Mixed Doubles Combined (AR) with Zelda Calitz

Brett had a really fun time playing in the Northern Territory Championships, with a sensational group of local players. Brett is a member of Port Sorell Pickleball Club.

Leyton Clifford had a great tournament, taking home the gold in:
19+ Men's Singles DUPR: 3.49 and under
19+ Men's Doubles DUPR: 3.49 and under with Peter Clifford (his dad)
19+ Mixed Doubles DUPR: 3.49 and under with Fiona Bench

Leyton, who only took up pickleball 12 months ago, described the QPT Mackay event as an exceptionally well-run tournament. The Townsville club member said sharing the Men’s Doubles title with his dad was a highlight of the event and a memory he will treasure forever.

Huge congratulations to Brett and Leyton on their incredible performances, and a massive well done to the organising teams for putting on some fantastic tournaments. 🙌
