About Us
Welcome to the Michigan Youth Pickleball Association (MYPA), the premier organization dedicated to fostering the growth of pickleball among Michigan’s youth. Launched on September of 2025, MYPA is committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and competitive environment for players aged Under 10 to Under 18, organized in two-year age brackets. As a non-profit governed by a passionate Board of Directors, we oversee team formations, schedule exciting tournaments, and set standards inspired by other successful youth club sports Organizations and Major League Pickleball. With a focus on skill development, sportsmanship, and safety—backed by comprehensive guidelines and mandatory training—we invite clubs, families, and communities to join us in building a thriving future for young athletes across the state.
