About the Webinar

Friday, August 28, 2026
12 PM or 3 PM Eastern

Every community in America is gaining pickleball players. The clinics that become known as the local pickleball experts will be the ones these players turn to first.

While many rehabilitation practices are competing for the same referrals they've always relied on, an entirely new patient population is emerging. These patients are active, motivated, highly social, and eager to get back on the court.

The clinics that position themselves as the experts in pickleball injuries today won't just treat more patients. They'll become the trusted resource for one of the fastest-growing athletic communities in America.

 

If You Think Pickleball is "Just a Trend"...

Think again.

Every day, more adults are trading sedentary lifestyles for hours on the pickleball court. According to USA Pickleball, 2025 participation in the United States reached an estimated 24.3 million players, marking the sport’s fourth consecutive year as America’s fastest-growing sport.1 Many new players go from little or no regular activity to playing multiple hours a day. The result is a surge in overuse injuries, sprains, strains, tendon disorders, fractures, and falls.

For rehabilitation professionals, this isn't just another sport.

It's an entirely new referral source.

One that many clinics haven't fully recognized yet.
