Sponsor Program

Pickleball BC, established in 2017, promotes the growing sport of pickleball in British Columbia. The increase in popularity and the growth of pickleball throughout Canada and North America creates a tremendous opportunity for your company to showcase its products.

The game can be played at any level and regardless of skill level, it develops quickness of mind, faster reflexes, and uniquely activates portions of the brain that few other sports do. It is a highly social game, bringing all ages into an environment where contact with others is a requisite part of the sport. Its benefits as a social experience are unparalleled.

From many clubs throughout BC, the thousands of players involved are a widely diverse group sharing a common love for pickleball. The primary demographics of this group represents economic clout and is a major source of discretionary spending.

Pickleball BC acts as a catalyst to support these players through an informative website and the promotion of clinics and tournaments. Sponsorships help to defray the costs associated with these activities.

Your support will help us increase the opportunities and growth of pickleball while highlighting your company.

We offer several sponsorship options allowing a business (or an individual) to advertise and support pickleball in British Columbia. These prices are effective January 1, 2026.

For more information or to arrange a sponsorship program for your business, please contact Pickleball BC: marcom@pickleballbc.ca.

PBC Partnerships

  • Individual members – either through local Affiliated Club membership or direct application to Pickleball BC (PBC) via the Pickleball Canada (“PCO”) website. More information, apply here.
  • Affiliated Clubs – localized groups of players that join with a common objective of promoting and playing pickleball together. Such groups usually form a “club” of varying formality and sign a cooperative agreement with PBC, which includes a requirement that all the members of the club must join PBC and PCO. Signing the standard agreement entitles the Club to Affiliated status. There is no fee for a club to become affiliated.
  • Associated Partner Organizations – this type of relationship fosters mutual promotion and pickleball play opportunities with multi‑dimensional organizations such as private multi‑sport clubs, educational institutions and some service clubs. The Associated Partner Organization is to encourage their member pickleball players to join PBC and PCO. Here also there is the formality of a cooperative agreement, with a nominal charge levied to the Associated Organization. The fee is currently (2021) set at $50 per annum.
  • Sponsors – this category covers many businesses either for profit or not for profit that either wish to just support the promotion of pickleball or have products or services on offer that they wish to promote to the pickleball community. These advertising opportunities manifest themselves, at various rates, in the form of ad spots on the PBC website or the PBC monthly Newsletter. More information here.
