Growing Pickleball
One Community at a Time
The Des Moines Metro Pickleball Club (DMMPC) is a volunteer run, nonprofit organization striving to facilitate the growth of pickleball in the area of Central Iowa. With one voice, the Club works with local municipalities in planning for the needs of our growing and diverse player community. The Club also promotes the best qualities of pickleball by providing a friendly and inclusive environment. In addition, the Club is guided by these principles:
