After months of anticipation, the long-discussed merger between the Professional Pickleball Association (PPA) and Major League Pickleball (MLP) has finally been approved by all relevant parties. The agreement, announced on 2/29/24, marks a significant milestone in the world of professional pickleball.
With the merger now official, approximately 150 players who had signed with either the PPA or MLP last August can finally have clarity on their future in the sport. This development paves the way for the organization of the 2024 MLP season, including team selections, event confirmations, and competitive play.
