DUPR (Dynamic Universal Pickleball Rating) is proud to announce our collaboration with the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation (NPCF) and their nationwide Pickleball initiative. Together, we aim to harness the power of the pickleball community to raise awareness and critical funding for pediatric cancer research.

As the world’s most accurate and widely used pickleball rating system, DUPR has always been committed to strengthening and uplifting communities both on and off the court. This partnership represents a shared belief that collective action can create real impact for families and children facing childhood cancer.

In this time of giving, we encourage members of the community to donate or get involved.

Stay tuned for exciting things in 2026 as DUPR is committed to helping raise funds and awareness for pediatric cancer research through NPCF.
