Some of Canada’s top pickleball talent will be putting their talent on display in Medicine Hat next July.

On Friday, Pickleball Canada announced that the Medicine Hat Pickleball Club and the community of Medicine Hat were selected to host the 2023 Pickleball Canada Western Regional Championship. The Pickleball Westerns will be held at the South Country Co-op Pickleball Courts.

From July 6-9, 2023, more than 500 players from across British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba are expected to compete for the title of the Western Region’s best pickleball athletes.

“The MHPC cannot wait to showcase our new 20-court facility, our city, our club members, and our outstanding volunteers to the Western Canadian Pickleball community,” said tournament director Brenda Lea MacPhail in a media statement. “Our past tournament successes have been noted by all that have attended over the years, and we hope to continue that legacy in 2023 making this event a very memorable one for all.”

The MH Pickleball Club hosted the Alberta Provincial Championships last July.

“We are very excited and honoured to have Medicine Hat chosen as the host community for the Pickleball Canada Western Regional Championship.” said Mayor Linnsie Clark. “This would not be possible without the hard work, enthusiasm and advocacy of the Medicine Hat Pickleball Club. Events such as these are a great example of what can happen when communities work together towards a common goal.”
