The California Pickleball Association, known as CAPA, is a volunteer-driven organization that runs pickleball tournaments and events across California. Its events use a round robin plus medal round format, are DUPR sanctioned, and are held at partner venues around the state, with some drawing more than a thousand players across dozens of divisions. Beyond tournaments, CAPA connects players with lessons, offers learn-to-play resources, hosts team building and family events, and supports community programs through its Pickleball Cares partnership. Membership and event registration run through playcapa.com. CAPA is an organizer rather than a facility, so there are no courts to visit; players engage through its calendar of events and its online platform.
