Who We Are

The K.L.P.A. represents the growth of Pickleball in the Kawartha Lakes.

It started out as a vision of bringing local communities of pickleball groups in the Kawartha Lakes Region to form a single voice. Our voice has now grown to more than three hundred players and is continuously growing.

This is a community of like minded individuals who strive to see health and wellness opportunities improve within the City of Kawartha Lakes municipality. Playing the game of Pickleball is one way to accomplish that goal.

The vision is to facilitate the expansion of Pickleball for all ages, levels and abilities in the City of Kawartha Lakes by creating and cultivating an environment that promotes enjoyment, health and social engagement.
