Happy Holidays! 🎄 🎁

There’s some pretty exciting stuff going on within the APP Tournament Series next year.

You probably haven’t heard anything about it just yet, but I figured I’d let you in on some of it!

Basically, there will be only 10 APP tournaments next year, instead of the usual 12. And on top of that, one of them is the Women’s Open, so there’s really only 9 I can compete in.

As a professional player, this is a bummer because nine tournaments in a year is really not much…

HOWEVER,

The APP also partnered with a bunch of different tournament series around the world.

This means that there is now a ton of opportunity to play internationally, which I personally love!!

International Pickleball is still in its infancy.

This is a great opportunity to become known internationally.

So, while only having nine tournaments in the US is a bummer, I’m very much looking forward to connecting with pickleball players and fans from across the world!

The first APP tournament in the USA is on March 26.

A whole 3 months away! 😕

But the first APP international tournament is in Malaysia in the middle of February.

I’m playing in a different tournament series in India for three weeks.

The timing works out perfectly to fly straight from India to Malaysia to play the APP there.

Then, I’m supposed to be going to Sri Lanka to go surfing.

Opportunities like this are why I love international Pickleball!

Although I think it’s very difficult for people trying to pursue professional Pickleball, as it’s a lot of travel, money, and time.

Luckily, I started when I did, and fans like you are why I’m able to make it work for my life and career.

Here’s this week’s video:

I personally use TruFoam Waves. I like the hybrid for singles and the wide body (standard) for doubles.
