Launching August 2026

This is what your tournament is missing.

Studio-quality broadcast production, built for pickleball. Full studio coverage, sponsor placement, and a level of polish this sport has never had at grassroots level — before your competitors get there first.

300+ hours Rome Open, Oct 2026: 300+ hours watched, nearly 12,000 views

Pickleball just went from local hobby to broadcast sport. Coverage hasn't caught up.

Most grassroots tournaments are still one phone and a tripod. That gap is the opportunity.

1
The sport is already proving it draws eyeballs
The audience appetite is real and growing — it just isn't reaching most events.
2
Grassroots coverage is stuck a decade behind
Regional and club tournament footage still looks like 2015 — shaky, silent, single-camera. Nobody's brought real production downmarket. We are.
3
Whoever moves first owns the moment
The first tournaments and brands into Studio get to be the story, not just another entrant once everyone's doing it.

Backed by a real, global pickleball audience — not a standing start

World Pickleball Magazine already reaches players across 5 continents. Studio launches directly into that audience, not from zero.

Trusted by brands already in the sport:
Sobek Pickleball Academy · Casa Luna · MaxPB · Soul Insole · Skratch Labs · Rad Roller · Sahara Dry · Friday Pickleball

Every tournament looks the same right now. Yours doesn't have to.

Regional pickleball footage is already pulling thousands of views with a phone propped on a chair. Imagine what happens when it's actually produced.

  • A phone on a tripod, if you're lucky
  • Silence between points, no story, no context
  • Footage nobody outside the venue ever sees

Every partnership contributes to something much bigger

World Pickleball Studio is building a global archive of the sport — its players, organisers, coaches, volunteers, clubs and communities. Every interview, every story and every tournament becomes part of a growing media network that celebrates pickleball around the world, while creating lasting value for organisers, partners and the sport itself. Our ambition is simple: to become the home of pickleball stories, wherever they happen.

Your competitor's logo could be here instead of yours

Studio Partnership is the headline offer — real video presence, in front of a genuinely engaged pickleball audience. Magazine, podcast and social are the add-on, not the whole pitch.

Founding Partner slots are limited by design. Every show only fits so many sponsor placements — founding partners lock in the best position before the rest go to whoever's next in line.

Common questions

How much does coverage cost? +

Live commentary starts from £20 per hour. Pick your date on the booking page to see your exact price.

What does "Founding Partner" mean for advertisers? +

Every show has a genuinely limited number of segment sponsorship slots — it's a physical production constraint, not a marketing trick. Founding partners who join during launch lock in the best placement before those slots fill up.

Who owns the rights to my tournament's footage? +

Rights terms are agreed per deal — this varies depending on the option and what you need, so we'll work through it directly with you before anything is filmed. Nothing is assumed or standardized yet.

What's the difference between Studio Partnership and the magazine package? +

Studio Partnership is video-first: a branded segment, an on-air feature, logo placement in the studio's on-screen sponsor strip, and inclusion in the news ticker. The magazine add-on is our original offer — a feature article, podcast mention and social content — available alongside it.

How quickly can you turn around production for our event? +

Turnaround depends on the scale of the event and which option you choose — tell us your dates and we'll give you a straight answer rather than a generic promise.

Where does the content actually get shown? +

Across World Pickleball Studio itself, World Pickleball Magazine's existing channels, and — for co-branded and white-label options — your own channels too.

Is there a public price list? +

The booking page shows your price step by step as you choose. Questions? Email chris@worldpickleball.media.
