The Fort Expands with Official Paddle Partnerships for Fans
The Fort is excited to announce its latest initiative that continues to position it as a premier destination for pickleball enthusiasts—a partnership with leading paddle brands. With names like Joola, Diadem, Six Zero, Engage, Gearbox Sports, Paddletek, Pro XR, Owl, and Franklin on board, The Fort is not just a playing venue; it is becoming a trailblazer in innovation and community engagement in pickleball.
World-Class Partnerships Enhance Player Experience
These official paddle partnerships are designed not just for brand exposure but to elevate the experience of pickleball players of all levels. By collaborating with renowned paddle manufacturers, The Fort aims to provide its visitors with the best products available in the market, ensuring they have top-tier equipment at their disposal.
Learning from the Best
Local players will benefit substantially from these partnerships. The Fort will host various clinics and workshops led by professional touring players. This is an extraordinary opportunity for participants to improve their game skills and receive first-hand coaching from some of the best talents in the sport. By bringing in experts, The Fort is dedicated to fostering a community of skilled players who can share their love for the game.
The Innovative Demo Program
One of the crown jewels of these partnerships is The Fort’s demo program. This gives players the unique chance to 'test-drive' paddles from the partner brands before committing to a purchase. As David Tabb, Membership Director at The Fort, aptly puts it, “No one should have to guess when investing in their game.” This mindful approach ensures players select equipment that genuinely complements their style and needs.
Customization and Personalization for Every Player
In a move that showcases The Fort’s commitment to personalization, an on-site customization station has been established. Here, players can modify their paddles according to individual preferences—adjusting grips, weight, and even visual design elements. This service ensures that each paddle is tailored to suit not just the physical requirements of the player, but their aesthetic tastes as well.
Live Streaming Access with FORTv
Continuing its efforts to connect the pickleball community, The Fort has integrated live streaming services through FORTv. This innovative platform offers spectators around the globe live access to matches happening at The Fort, showcasing the excitement of the sport 18 hours a day. As Brad Tuckman, Founder of The Fort, articulates, “FORTv is revolutionizing how fans connect with fellow amateur pickleball players.” This elevated access is what makes The Fort a hub of community engagement and competitive spirit.
Commitment to Grassroots Growth
Beyond providing exceptional facilities and programs, The Fort is committed to expanding the reach of pickleball. Working closely with paddle partners, The Fort aims to introduce the sport into schools, ensuring that the next generation has access to this increasingly popular activity. “This is about building the future of pickleball,” Tuckman emphasized. The focus is to cultivate a love for the sport among youth, laying the foundation for a thriving pickleball community.
The Fort: More than Just a Facility
As The Fort prepares for its grand opening celebration, it becomes clear that this venue is not merely about sports. With the world’s first pickleball stadium, 43 courts, a lakeside entertainment complex, dining opportunities, live music, and a retail experience, The Fort is crafting what can only be described as a pickleball ecosystem.
