Editorial Letter: Beyond the Magazine
The Sport Is Changing
For years, pickleball has been described as the fastest-growing sport in the United States. But something even bigger is happening now. The sport is no longer simply growing — it is expanding.
Across continents, cultures, and communities, pickleball is finding new courts, new players, and new audiences. From local parks to professional tours, the game is evolving faster than anyone imagined.
Why Dink Authority Had To Evolve
Over the past year, our magazine has grown alongside the sport itself. What began as a publication focused on telling the stories of pickleball players and communities is becoming something larger.
With the sport changing rapidly, it became clear that the way we deliver those stories also needed to change. A magazine alone could no longer capture the scale of what was happening.
Pickleball is no longer just growing.
It is becoming global.

Building Something Bigger
For months, our team studied how players follow the sport, how communities interact, and how information moves across the pickleball world. What followed was a long process of development, reflection, and collaboration between players, creators, and builders who share the same vision for where this sport is going.
The result is the next evolution of Dink Authority.
A new digital platform designed to stay connected with the heartbeat of the pickleball community.
LOCAL. REGIONAL. GLOBAL.
A Platform For The Global Game
This new platform allows readers to stay up to date with what is happening across the sport — from professional tournaments to grassroots communities that continue to drive the growth of pickleball worldwide.
The platform can also be installed as an app, allowing readers to stay connected with the sport wherever they go.
Because pickleball is no longer just a sport.
It is a global movement.
And the story is just beginning.
