More Than a Game: The Heart Behind GoodGame Pickleball

I’m David Goodman, founder of GoodGame Pickleball—a Long Island-based initiative that uses sport to build community and support meaningful causes.

Our tournaments go beyond competition. Each one raises awareness and funds for issues like cancer, mental health, autism, and animal welfare—bringing people together through shared purpose.

These are events where:

• Families honor loved ones.

• Strangers become teammates.

• Impact is made through play, connection, and compassion.

GoodGame Pickleball is about turning matches into moments that matter. Because in the end, we always say: GoodGame.
