On February 1, 2023, the Canadian National Pickleball League (CNPL) officially launched as the country’s first professional pickleball league.
“Interest in pickleball has exploded in recent years, and we are thrilled to be part of the action. Canada is bursting with talent that deserves to flourish; the CNPL will provide the opportunity for players to focus on their professional and skill development while simultaneously fostering the growth of the sport in Canada.” Cameron Taylor
The CNPL was designed to create a professional space for Canada’s top-ranked pickleball players to develop and showcase their skills while cultivating our country’s next generation of athletes.
Additionally, the CNPL will also focus on creating a community of comradery and support for professional and amateur pickleball athletes through annual events, showcases, training and ambassador programs.
