Where Juniors Play, Grow, and Belong in National Junior Pickleball

Where Juniors Compete, Grow, and Belong

National Junior Pickleball (NJP) Tour events are juniors-only pickleball tournaments for ages 8–18, built to give young athletes a fun, high-quality place to compete, meet new friends, and grow their game.

Divisions are organized by age and DUPR based skill levels, and formats are designed to maximize play—typically round-robin matches followed by medal-round playoffs—so every player gets meaningful court time.

NJP tournaments combine a welcoming, community-first environment with real competition, clear rules, and a polished event experience that helps players build confidence on and off the court.

FIND FRIENDS &
COMMUNITY

More Than Matches.
It’s a Community

If you’ve ever been the “only kid playing pickleball,” you’re not alone anymore.

NJP events are where juniors and families connect, compete, and make friendships that last long after the last point is played.

IN THEIR OWN WORDS

“NJP tournaments have been highlights of the year for our entire family. The Junior pickleball community is small but mighty, and we’ve had a blast connecting with other Athletic families… in addition to the tough competition on the courts, we’ve created long lasting memories & friendships.”

Gabi M

Mother of Maverick (12) and Mila (11)

“NJP does a great job encouraging Juniors! My 8 year old boy lead the Team. I saw a new version of him as a captain. He took tough roles and negotiated well with other players on their line up. I believe this leadership experience will help him long term. My other 2 daughters want to play pickleball now too. I am witnessing live how NJP is growing pickleball.”

“My girls played in their very first tournament and had the greatest time learning and growing with friends their age. It was awesome to see these girlies improve over just a couple days of play. This weekend definitely sparked a new love and focus for them to make pickleball training a priority alongside the other sports they play. To say we’re excited for what’s ahead in an understatement.” – Emerald Polotu, Mother of AnaLia (10), Avei (9) and Lesila (8).”

“My first NJP experience was simply amazing! Everyone involved in the organization of this event was kind, welcoming and extremely supportive. They did a fantastic job of running a fair and smooth tournament. I got to compete and become friends with exceptionally talented kids from around the country. Overall it was a fun and pleasant experience and I can’t wait to participate in the next National Juniors Pickleball Championship.”

“Please extend our appreciation to your team who were equally remarkable, ensuring our experience was nothing short of amazing! Your staff, Power Play and especially the Referee’s were so kind and patient with the younger first time players. Our kids learned so much about the game, sportsmanship and themselves this past weekend that they would not have learned had they not participated.”
