UCLA Club Pickleball Fundraising Campaign 2026

In 2025, we founded UCLA Club Pickleball, the only club at UCLA dedicated towards Pickleball. We started from humble beginnings, where the current club president Raymond (Ray) Gue led a small group of 8 pickleballers to play on the tennis courts at Sycamore Tennis Courts. From playing on tennis courts to having painter's tape, to using chalk, our then interest club began to grow, and in 2023 over 60 students came to Sunset Rec to play! Since then, we have attended over 6 national and regional collegiate tournaments, playing against colleges across the country. With the help of UCLA alumni and alumna, we have been fortunate to have these opportunities to compete, and most importantly, beat USC! 

To continue this, we need your support! We are aiming to fundraise money in support of our club tournament expenses, would appreciate any support that you are able to provide! We look forward to continue competing and making a name for UCLA within the pickleball space, while making connections with alumni along the way. 

Happy to connect via Instagram or email, and we thank you so much for your support and generosity!
