Set your personal record. Support cancer survivors. Join the #PBVolleyChallenge.

In honor of Cancer Awareness Prevention Month, DUPR has officially launched the Pickleball Volley Challenge, a global initiative inviting players everywhere to rally for something bigger than the scoreboard.

Running from February 16, 2026 through World Pickleball Day on October 10, 2026, the challenge encourages the pickleball community to come together through friendly competition, storytelling, and meaningful impact.

👉 Set Your Personal Record

The current world record is 113 volleys in one minute, set by the Rossetti Brothers.  Maybe you can break a new one!

Whether you’re chasing the record or simply setting a personal best, every attempt helps raise awareness and support cancer survivors.

A Challenge With a Purpose

On World Cancer Day, DUPR partnered with world-record holders and DUPR Coaches Angelo and Ettore Rossetti to launch a community-driven initiative rooted in connection, resilience, and hope.

Aligned with the World Cancer Day theme “United by Unique,” the PB Volley Challenge invites players to unite through movement and shared purpose.

For the Rossetti Brothers, this mission is deeply personal. After achieving a Guinness World Records™ title for the longest pickleball rally, they lost their mother to pancreatic cancer. Since then, they’ve continued using record-breaking moments to honor her legacy and give back to others.

“Purpose has always come before records for us. This challenge is about honoring our mom and helping others through the power of sport and community.” — Angelo A. Rossetti.

And here’s the truth behind the challenge:

It doesn’t matter if you break the record. What matters is showing up and making an attempt to support a good cause.
