Launching August 2026

This is what your tournament is missing.

Sky Sports-level broadcast production, built for pickleball. Full studio coverage, sponsor placement, and a level of polish this sport has never had at grassroots level — before your competitors get there first.

250,000+ projected combined views within Studio's first 60 days*

Pickleball just went from local hobby to broadcast sport. Coverage hasn't caught up.

MLP and PPA broadcasts now out-rate NBA games on national TV. Meanwhile, most tournaments below that level are still one phone and a tripod. That gap is the opportunity.

1
The sport is already proving it draws eyeballs
Pickleball broadcasts have out-rated major national sports on TV. The audience appetite is real and growing — it just isn't reaching most events.
2
Grassroots coverage is stuck a decade behind
Regional and club tournament footage still looks like 2015 — shaky, silent, single-camera. Nobody's brought real production downmarket. We are.
3
Whoever moves first owns the moment
The first tournaments and brands into Studio get to be the story, not just another entrant once everyone's doing it.

Backed by a real, global pickleball audience — not a standing start

World Pickleball Magazine already reaches players across 5 continents. Studio launches directly into that audience, not from zero.

Trusted by brands already in the sport:
Sobek Pickleball Academy · Casa Luna · MaxPB · Soul Insole · Skratch Labs · SQAIRZ · Rad Roller · Sahara Dry · Friday Pickleball
*Projected 60-day reach based on 5 launch events producing ~10–12 pieces of content each, benchmarked against real 2025–26 pickleball tournament footage viewership plus World Pickleball Magazine's existing distribution.

Every tournament looks the same right now. Yours doesn't have to.

Regional pickleball footage is already pulling thousands of views with a phone propped on a chair. Imagine what happens when it's actually produced.

Today
  • A phone on a tripod, if you're lucky
  • Silence between points, no story, no context
  • Footage nobody outside the venue ever sees
  • Sponsors get a banner nobody's looking at
  • By next week, it's like the tournament never happened
VS
With World Pickleball Studio
  • Full virtual studio — pre-show, analysis, wrap
  • A host and narrative that makes people stay
  • Highlights players actually share with everyone they know
  • Sponsor placement built into the broadcast itself
  • A content asset that markets next year's event for you
We're onboarding 5 founding events in Studio's first 60 days.
That's it. Once they're booked, the next slot is whenever we have capacity again.

Your competitor's logo could be here instead of yours

Studio Partnership is the headline offer — real video presence, in front of a genuinely engaged pickleball audience. Magazine, podcast and social are the add-on, not the whole pitch.

Founding Partner slots are limited by design. Every show only fits so many sponsor placements — founding partners lock in the best position before the rest go to whoever's next in line.

Common questions

Do I have to pay to get my tournament covered? +

No. Rights-for-Production is free — you give us access to your live stream, and we handle core coverage plus highlights, monetized ourselves. Paid options are priced per event based on what you need — there's no public price list, book a call and we'll quote it properly.

What does "5 founding events" actually mean? +

We're a small team (plus Reactoo) at launch, so we're deliberately limiting the first 60 days to 5 tournaments so each one gets real attention, not a stretched-thin crew. Once those slots are filled, new bookings queue for the next available window.

What does "Founding Partner" mean for advertisers? +

Every show has a genuinely limited number of segment sponsorship slots — it's a physical production constraint, not a marketing trick. Founding partners who join during launch lock in the best placement before those slots fill up.

Who owns the rights to my tournament's footage? +

Rights terms are agreed per deal — this varies depending on the option and what you need, so we'll work through it directly with you before anything is filmed. Nothing is assumed or standardized yet.

What's the difference between Studio Partnership and the magazine package? +

Studio Partnership is video-first: a branded segment, an on-air feature, logo placement in the studio's on-screen sponsor strip, and inclusion in the news ticker. The magazine add-on is our original offer — a feature article, podcast mention and social content — available alongside it.

How quickly can you turn around production for our event? +

Turnaround depends on the scale of the event and which option you choose — tell us your dates and we'll give you a straight answer rather than a generic promise.

Where does the content actually get shown? +

Across World Pickleball Studio itself, World Pickleball Magazine's existing channels, and — for co-branded and white-label options — your own channels too.

Is there a public price list? +

Not at this stage — every event and brand deal is different, and we'd rather quote accurately on a call than publish a generic number that doesn't fit your situation.
