About this listen

What does it really take for pickleball to go global — and make the Olympics? In Episode 87 of Future of Pickleball, host Paul Olson sits down with investigative pickleball journalist Erik Tice (‪@TheDinkPickleball‬) to break down the urgent need for a unified international governing body. 🚨 They discuss:

  • The battle between the GPF, WPF, and IPF
  • Why the 2032 Brisbane Olympics might be pickleball’s shot
  • What “global governance” actually means
  • Voting systems, IOC recognition, and the SportsAccord process
  • How to grow pickleball in low-resource countries
  • Why this matters more than tour rivalries or league politics
