Svenska Pickleballförbundet (SvPF)
The pickleball federation in Sweden · Swedish Pickleball Association/Federation (SvPF)
Svenska Pickleballförbundet (SvPF) is Sweden's registered national association for pickleball (org.nummer 802510-0291), displaying both EPF and WPF membership logos on its site. It is organised as a federation of member clubs (not individual members) led by an elected board (chair Tony Olofsson at time of research). It runs a national competition calendar, a competition handbook and rules, an official SvPF ranking, the 'Svenska Mästare' (Swedish Champions) national championship, a national team ('Landslaget') with published selection criteria, and coach/official education programmes.
Getting a licence
A licence is needed to play official pickleball competitions in Sweden.
Membership is at club level only (no individual membership): a club applies online and pays an annual fee of 1,000 SEK, invoiced after application; a club must be affiliated with SvPF for its playing members to compete in the Swedish Championships (SM). Affiliated clubs may also organise sanctioned competitions and get a calendar listing.
