February 2025

Dear OPA-APO Members,

The Ottawa Pickleball Association (OPA-APO) is seeking passionate, dedicated individuals to join our Board of Directors and help shape the future of pickleball in our community. As a Board member, you will play a key role in guiding the strategic direction of the association, supporting the further growth of the sport, and ensuring a positive experience for adult players of all ages and skill levels. Whether you bring expertise in governance, IT, marketing, community engagement, or event management, your contribution will be vital in developing opportunities for more people to play pickleball in Ottawa.

We are looking for people who are enthusiastic about promoting an active and healthy lifestyle, and who are eager to collaborate with other like-minded leaders. Board members should have a strong commitment to community development and a willingness to invest time and energy into the development of the sport. This is an exciting opportunity to make a lasting impact, build meaningful connections, and be part of an enthusiastic team of individuals dedicated to pickleball in the Ottawa community.

Board members are elected by members at the Annual General Meeting for a 2-year term and can serve up to 6 years in various positions. Meetings are typically held monthly in person or via zoom. It is not an onerous commitment of time, typically a few hours a month.

If you're ready to help drive the further success of the Ottawa Pickleball Association, we encourage you to apply today!

Please send your name and a few paragraphs about your background and interest to president@ottawapickleballassociation.com

Submission deadline is February 28, 2025.
