Callaway High School and the Troup County Pickleball Association are teaming up to Grow the Game of pickleball!
TCPA was selected as a recipient of the “Grow the Game” grant because of its commitment to growing the sport and creating opportunities in our community. This grant aligns with USA Pickleball’s mission to promote the development and growth of pickleball across the country, while also supporting USA Pickleball Serves’ goal of making a positive impact through initiatives like youth programming, court enhancements, and inclusive play.
At Callaway High School, Graduation Coach Brook Jackson and Health and Physical Education teacher Kelly Swanson are already introducing students to the game. With the help of this grant, TCPA was able to donate portable nets, Franklin paddles, and balls—giving students the proper equipment to learn, play, and enjoy pickleball.
We are excited to see the next generation getting involved and growing the game right here in our community!
