The Taiwanese American Pickleball Association (TAPA) is dedicated to building a vibrant, inclusive community that celebrates the love of pickleball while honoring and promoting Taiwanese American culture. Through tournaments, cultural events, and community outreach, we aim to foster friendships, support wellness, and create opportunities for all ages to connect through the joy of sport and heritage.

Foster the development of beginner players by offering accessible learning opportunities such as instructional clinics, peer mentorship, and guided practice sessions that build confidence and fundamental pickleball skills in a supportive environment.
Promote Taiwanese American Pickleball as the Golden Standard
Position TAPA as a cultural and athletic leader by showcasing Taiwanese American talent, sharing inspiring stories and content, and curating events that set a high bar for sportsmanship, community pride, and excellence in pickleball.
