About Us
Our journey began in 2016, when the first pickleball clinics were conducted in Cebu by Onix professional, Sara Ash. In the years since, hundreds of clinics and dozens of tournaments have been conducted and the sport is now played daily by thousands of enthusiastic players nationwide.
On April 15, 2019, the Philippine Pickleball Sports Association (PPSA) was established to begin formally organizing the sport. Six months later PPSA began doing business as the Philippine Pickleball Federation (PPF) and was recognized by the International Federation of Pickleball (IFP) as the national sports association of NSA for the Philippines.
Although the 2020 pandemic stalled all tournaments and halted most play, it did not slow our efforts to organise the sport regionally. We teamed up with a number of our regional neighbors to organise the first continental federation under the direction of the IFP, and today are recognised as a founding member of the Asian Federation of Pickleball or AFP.
