WHERE IT BEGAN

It was on a pickleball court where the paths of two men crossed. Al, an educator and entrepreneur, and Gary, a successful businessman, played together for the first time as doubles partners.
They quickly discovered they shared a passion for pickleball and a deep commitment to helping children. Al shared how he started a community-based nonprofit in 2014 that fed and educated children and expressed his desire to do something similar within the pickleball community. Inspired by their shared vision, the two developed a plan to create a company that sold affordable, high-quality pickleball attire and gear while supporting nonprofits that served children.
Together, they launched the Rogue Pickleball brand, committing to donate a portion of the company's profits to organizations dedicated to feeding children. Contributions from the newly formed company would make a meaningful impact on the lives of thousands of underserved children. Al and Gary's shared values and entrepreneurial spirit exemplify the power of "playing with purpose" and “combining passion for pickleball with compassion for children.”
Their story is a testament to how the love of a sport can transform into a powerful force for good, creating lasting change in communities nationwide.
