Selkirk Sport is the leading manufacturer of pickleball equipment that keeps uncompromising quality at the heart of everything they do.

How to Participate:

  1. Plan your Event. Will you host a clinic, drop-in play, or a tournament? Consider where you will host the event, who you will invite, the best date for your network. Once you have good idea of your Pickleball event, get registered.

  2. Register at ParkinsonsChampionsDIY.org. Use the Parkinson's Foundation DIY website to create a fundraising website. If your event will have a registration fee or suggested donation amount, you can customize the page to include this information. Upload a photo and add your event details to the page. You can use this fundraising page to collect RSVPs and donations. 

  3. Fill out this form to apply for Selkirk sponsorship (event should host at least 75 players).

Selkirk has introduced two specially-designed pickleball paddles — the EVO and the AMPED Pro Air — each featuring the Parkinson’s Foundation logo. These paddle models were chosen with input from members of the Parkinson’s community for their lightweight design and maneuverability.

For every pickleball paddle sold, Selkirk will donate 12% of sales to the Parkinson’s Foundation, a percentage that represents the 1.2 million people projected to be living with Parkinson’s by 2030.
