Tournament Flooring:
A special addition to this year’s event will be the use of new, state-of-the-art, cushioned Pop Up pickleball courts from Pickleball United’s “True Court”, the Official Rollout Court Partner of USA Pickleball. This innovative flooring will be installed on all tournament courts and is manufactured with a polyvinyl sub-surface with a textured non-skid playing surface that is easier on players’ legs. It was also the court used at the recent Pickleball Slam held at the Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida.
