The organisational structure of pickleball in Australia has three tiers:
- National Association - Pickleball Australia Association (PAA)
- State Associations - in NSW - Pickleball Association NSW (PANSW)
- Local Clubs
The role of the PAA is to build relationships internationally and ensure pickleball in Australia is recognized internationally, to coordinate and facilitate development of pickleball nationally, and to organize national pickleball events in conjunction with state pickleball associations.
Local clubs enhance the growth of pickleball in their local areas by working with venue organisers, identifying new venues as needed, organising pickleball sessions, hosting local events and training sessions.
State pickleball associations bridge the gap between the PAA and local clubs. PANSW is critical for the growth of pickleball in NSW at this time as clubs are in the early stages of development.
