mostra másThe formation of the IFP was the result of a collaborative effort among pickleball enthusiasts, players, and organizations from around the world who recognized the need for a governing body to oversee the sport's growth and standardization. The founding members of the IFP came from countries such as the United States, Canada, Spain, France, and India, showcasing the international appeal and popularity of pickleball.
The primary objectives of the IFP were to promote pickleball globally, establish consistent rules and regulations, organize international tournaments, and support the development of national pickleball federations in various countries. The IFP aimed to create a platform for players to compete at the highest level and to foster the spirit of sportsmanship and camaraderie within the pickleball community.
One of the IFP's first initiatives was to establish the World Pickleball Championships, an annual event that would bring together the best players from around the globe to compete for the title of world champion. The inaugural World Pickleball Championships were scheduled to take place in 2019, with plans for a grand celebration and fierce competition.
The formation of the IFP on June 26, 2018, marked a turning point in the history of pickleball, as it signified the sport's transition from a recreational activity to a recognized and organized international sport. It paved the way for pickleball to gain more exposure, attract sponsors, and inspire people of all ages and backgrounds to pick up a paddle and join the growing community of pickleball enthusiasts worldwide.
As a fun fact, legend has it that on the evening of June 26, 2018, after the official establishment of the IFP, the founding members engaged in a friendly yet competitive pickleball tournament. The matches were filled with laughter, exciting rallies, and a shared passion for the sport that brought them all together. It was a memorable way to celebrate the birth of the IFP and the bright future that lay ahead for pickleball on the global stage.
