KAYI is designed for youth ages 18 and under on Dec 31st of the current year who love pickleball and want to improve their game.
- Can you tell me more about the Advanced Youth Development Clinics?
The Advanced Youth Development Clinics will be advertised on our web page and social media to gain interest and then offered by invitation. The clinics will be free of charge through our KAYI sponsorship funding. They will be run by a pro and/or high level players. Some of our KAYI youth receiving sponsorship funds for pro tournaments will also be assisting in these clinics as a way to “give back”.

The KAYI board of directors will make the final decisions after reviewing applications. Funds are only allowed to be used for APP Next Gen, APP Pro Events, or PPA Pro Events at this time.
