As pickleball continues to grow, so does the need for smarter ways to manage clubs, players, and tournaments. Whether you're running a physical pickleball club or leading a local group of weekend warriors in a recreational park, DUPR Clubs can now organize events, track player performance, and boost participation quickly, easily and efficiently. 

‍

So, What Is a DUPR Digital Club?

‍

A DUPR Digital Club is an online hub within the DUPR platform that lets you organize, rate, and run pickleball events for your community. It’s built for club directors, coaches, tournament organizers, and even casual players who want to run local leagues.

‍

No facility? No problem. You don’t need to own a physical club to launch a digital one. You can rent courts, collaborate with local rec centers, or run your group entirely online.
