The Parkinson’s Foundation is a national nonprofit improving care and advancing research for people with Parkinson’s disease, and pickleball has a named place in its work. Its Pickleball for Parkinson’s program helps supporters host clinics, drop in play, or tournaments as do it yourself fundraisers, with a partnership through Selkirk Sport that offers event sponsorship for gatherings of 75 or more players and two specially designed paddles chosen with input from the Parkinson’s community for lightweight maneuverability. The foundation also publishes guidance on playing pickleball with Parkinson’s, framing the sport as exercise that supports balance, agility, and cognition, with safety tips for players managing symptoms.
