Pickleball is one of the fastest-growing sports in the country—and in New York City, Conquer Pickleball is leading the way by empowering the next generation through movement, mentorship, and meaningful community impact.
As the only youth pickleball program in NYC actively partnering with schools and community centers, Conquer is redefining access to the sport. From after-school initiatives to community pop-ups, the program is introducing kids and teens to a game that’s fast, fun, and full of life lessons.
Thanks to partnerships with Franklin Pickleball and Swiftnet, Conquer delivers top-tier equipment and professional-grade experiences. Young players get to train with the same paddles and nets used by the pros, elevating both the quality of play and the pride that comes with it.
“Our mission is simple—give kids access to something powerful, something that builds confidence, teamwork, and joy,” says Kristian Carabello, Head of Brand Partnerships at Conquer Pickleball.
“Pickleball is more than a sport to us—it’s a tool for growth and connection, and we’re proud to bring that to communities all over NYC.”
Whether it’s a school gym in Queens or a weekend tournament in Brooklyn, Conquer Pickleball is creating something bigger than the game: a movement of youth, energy, and opportunity.
