Rally for the Future

Creating space for community, wellness, and year-round play.

MORE THAN A FACILITY. A LASTING INVESTMENT IN HEALTH, CONNECTION, AND COMMUNITY.

The Minot Area Pickleball Association is leading an effort to build a year-round indoor pickleball facility that will promote health, strengthen social connections, support youth and seniors, and generate economic opportunities for Minot and the region.

This is more than a building. It’s an investment in the future of our community.

Today, we are raising funds for the planning and design phase, bringing us one step closer to our vision.

WHY THIS MATTERS

Minot’s pickleball community is growing rapidly, but weather and facility limitations restrict year-round access and opportunities for participation. A dedicated indoor facility will help meet current demand while creating lasting benefits for our community

  • Promote Healthier Lives: Provide consistent, year-round opportunities for physical activity regardless of weather conditions. Pickleball is a low-impact sport that is easy to learn, welcoming for beginners, and accessible to people of all ages and abilities.

  • Strengthen Community Connections: Provide a welcoming space where friendships are formed, families spend quality time together, and community members stay connected year-round. By creating opportunities for social interaction, recreation, and shared experiences, the facility will help combat isolation, foster a stronger sense of belonging, and strengthen the fabric of our community. More than a place to play, it will be a place where community happens.

  • Expand Opportunities for Youth and Adults: Provide a dedicated space for leagues, clinics, lessons, youth programs, and competitive play. The facility will support recreational opportunities that are currently limited.

  • Generate Economic Impact: Attract tournaments, clinics, leagues, and special events that bring visitors to Minot. These events can increase spending at local hotels, restaurants, and other businesses while enhancing Minot's reputation as a regional destination for tourism.

  • Create a Lasting Legacy: Establish a community asset that will serve residents for generations to come. This facility is an investment in the future, creating opportunities for healthier lifestyles, stronger community connection, youth development, and economic impact.
