Fuller Center Partners with National Women’s Pickleball Foundation to Bring Permanent Pickleball Courts to West Campus

The Fuller Center is making exciting strides in expanding its recreational offerings, thanks to a new partnership with the National Women’s Pickleball Foundation. On March 20th, CBS12 News visited our West Campus to spotlight the incredible impact these inspiring women are making by bringing the fast-growing sport of pickleball to Fuller’s West Campus.

What started as a summer camp initiative last year through the Boca West Children’s Foundation is now evolving into something much more significant—a set of permanent pickleball courts. These courts will provide Fuller Center children with a fun, healthy, and engaging activity for years to come.

“We’re beyond grateful to the National Women’s Pickleball Foundation and Boca West Children’s Foundation for introducing this sport to our kids,” said Brian Jones, Chief Development Director at Fuller Center. “This partnership is creating more than just new courts—it’s giving our children a space to be active, build skills, and have fun together.”

The expansion of pickleball at Fuller Center highlights the organization’s commitment to providing enriching experiences that promote physical fitness and social engagement. The new courts will be a valuable addition to the West Campus, offering year-round opportunities for recreation, skill-building, and friendly competition.
