The Golden Pickleball Award

The Golden Pickleball Awards

“The Show-Me Pickleball Club will award up to five Golden Pickleball Awards each year at the annual club meeting. The Golden Pickleball is awarded to a club member or sponsor who has demonstrated the core values of our club’s mission. This is through their volunteer efforts that go above and beyond, their spirit of community by being a welcoming ambassador to all that play pickleball, or their generosity to the club. Any club member can nominate a member or sponsor for the award. ”
