Become a vital part of one of Western Michigan's premier sporting events! The Ludington Area Pickleball Club invites local and regional businesses to partner with us for our annual tournament, held the second weekend of every September at the beautiful Oriole Field courts.

By becoming a sponsor, your business gains valuable exposure while supporting the continuous improvement of a community facility that pickleball players across the state envy.

Why Sponsor the Ludington Pickleball Classic?

Our tournament has grown into a highly anticipated, player-favorite event. Partnering with us offers your business direct access to an engaged, active audience:

• Regional & International Reach: We draw an average of 260 players from 5–6 different states and Ontario, Canada.

• High Spectator Foot Traffic: The event attracts around 300 spectators each day over the three-day competition.

• Community Impact: 100% of the profits from this tournament are reinvested directly into maintaining, updating, and beautifying the Tinkham Avenue courts.

A Win-Win for Ludington: Our tournament doesn't just promote the sport of pickleball—it actively drives tourism and boosts local businesses as players and spectators explore everything our city has to offer.
