★About the league
Built by the industry, for the industry.
Pharma Pickleball League is the league for pharma, agency and publisher teams. It brings colleagues and competitors onto the same courts, a city at a time, with a real season, real standings and real pros.
01
Culture
A company team gives people across functions a reason to show up together, and a rivalry to rally around.
02
Health and wellness
One of America's fastest-growing sports, pickleball is easy to learn, social and good for you. Rec and Open flights mean every level plays.
03
Real connection
In-person time across pharma, agencies and publishers, without the conference badge. The best conversations happen at the kitchen line.
