Canada Set to Launch Pro Pickleball Tour

by Jason Flamm on

Move over hockey and curling, Canada might soon have a new national pastime. Total Sports Solutions has announced a partnership with the Canadian Pickleball Association (CPA) to launch the first Canadian professional pickleball tour.

It's set to begin in June of this year and will take place in Toronto at HISPORTS Pickleball facilities.

"This initiative not only highlights the growing popularity of pickleball but also aligns with our commitment to promoting sports and active lifestyles across all ages.”— Ian Lintott, CEO of Total Sport Solutions Inc.

Format and prizes

The tour will feature a double-elimination format in both singles and doubles categories, with a total prize pool of $15,000 for the professional divisions.

Tom Webb, CMO of the APP Tour, joined Zane and Thomas this week on the PicklePod to discuss global pickleball, how pickleball viewership can grow, and why the APP doesn’t believe it’s competing with anyone.

The CPA Pro Tour aims to attract Canada’s finest pickleball players and provide them with a platform to excel and gain recognition in their sport.
