BENEFITS
The most-recent emails from both the USAPA and the PPA/UTR indicate a requirement of $7500/paddle, $2500/ball and $2000/paddle. This is outrageous considering professional pickleball represents 0.01% of the overall market. Manufacturers, service providers and creators focused on the MASSIVE recreation market worldwide do not need to spend exorbitant fees just to have a stamp on their products or services indicating they put out something of value!
Similar to the way CE allows electronics manufacturers to self-certify, PMA APPROVED believes you adhere to your product standards for the betterment of the pickleball community. With some basic requirements, you can communicate to your customers that you are interested in creating good products, services and content for the community.
