Marcie Moody: Member At Large 2025-2026First of all, I’d like to thank the PPA members for voting for me for the of Member-At- Large Board position. I’ve been involved with the PPA for many years & have seen how it has grown in lesson organization for all levels as well as expanding to so many other perspective players. It takes a number of people to keep up with current & new programs for all interest of pickleball play. Whether a player is looking to advance to a higher level or just enjoy a recreational & social atmosphere, there is a source within PPA to accomplish their needs. Volunteers are always a welcome addition to ensure these events are successful. I will complete my duties as requested by the Board for the duration of my position to the best of my ability. I have committed to this position in the past & have working knowledge of what the requirements are to benefit all the members. A new Board is taking hold of their positions for PPA & ideas are always a big part of any associations’ success. A new survey is in the works & this is the time to see how other ideas can make an improvement or suggestion from the membership. I’ve dedicated a lot of time to help PPA be a strong & important part of our community. I look forward to seeing you at future events. Until then, keep that paddle up!
