About York Region Pickleball Club
York Region Pickleball Club is the largest and most active pickleball community in North America, offering leagues, tournaments, drop-ins, and special events throughout York Region. We use the Global Pickleball Network (GPN) to manage all our programs and memberships, ensuring a streamlined experience for players of all skill levels.
To participate in our events, you must join the York Region Pickleball Network on GPN. However, you do not need to be a paid member to sign up for events. When joining, you may see a pop-up for GPN Premium Membership—this is separate from the York Region Membership. You will also get a York Region membership pop-up, simply click ‘Pay Later’ to proceed. However, active players may find value in purchasing a membership, as York Region members receive preferred pricing on leagues and events.
