Company Overview
The United Pickleball Association (UPA) is the holding company for the two premier professional pickleball organizations, the Professional Pickleball Association (PPA) Tour and Major League Pickleball (MLP). Formed in 2024 through the merger of these two entities, the UPA was created to unify the sport, providing a streamlined schedule and a single governing structure for players, fans, and sponsors. The merger was backed by a $75 million investment from private equity firm SC Holdings and other investors. The UPA oversees both the individual, bracket-style PPA Tour and the team-based MLP, which maintain their distinct brands. The organization hosts world-class events for both professional and amateur players and is also expanding internationally.
