WEBSITE WELCOME
Hi Pickleball Enthusiasts,
Welcome to Lake Havasu City Pickleball Association (LHCPBA) web site! The Mission of the LHCPBA is to promote the development and growth of pickleball in the Lake Havasu City area. To that end, we are working to raise the funds to build eight more courts at Dick Samp Park in the immediate future and to complete the rest of the 16 court complex later on. More information about this fundraising effort is described below in the Dick Samp Park Expansion Project.
This website provides lots of information about the Association, places/times to play and resources to contact for additional information. We hope you can see the advantages to joining our pickleball association as your support is key to helping us achieve our pickleball goals.

Dick Samp Park Expansion Project includes 8 New Pickleball Courts!
What a great moment for LHCPBA on 3/10/20 at the City Council meeting presenting our $100K check towards the construction of the next eight courts!! This donation was instrumental in the City's decision to allocate additional funds ($740K) in the current budget to accommodate courts construction this year. Thank You to the LHCPBA members and community organizations, especially Mike Delaney, that donated to the Lake Havasu Courts Project! WE MADE IT HAPPEN!
New DSP Courts Construction UPDATE as of 5/19/2021
NEW COURTS ARE OPEN! We now have 12 courts available
for Open Play! New Paddle Racks will be installed in late
September.
GROUNDBREAKING 11/09/20
The city council approved the successful bid for construction of new courts at Dick Samp Park on 10/13/2020. The new courts construction is moving forward after the bidding company agreed to reduce the scope to keep within budget. The scope reduction eliminates sidewalks and the new parking lot (which will be moved to the next phase) but still includes eight new courts! Smaller cost items such as windscreens, sunshades and bleachers can be an area we contribute with dollars we have left in our New Courts Construction account and by fundraising events. It is expected that construction will begin around November 20, 2020 and completion by 5/21/2021 or sooner.
Windscreens (slats that will be installed in the fencing) and two sun shades have been purchased with funds raised by member donations from Lake Havasu Pickleball Courts account!! The City will install those soon. Look for additional court enhancements in the fall.
A formal ribbon cutting will take place in the fall 2021 after many of our snowbirds return.
Lake Havasu City Pickleball Association Presents a $100K Donation to Lake Havasu City

PHASE 3 FUNDRAISING - THE FINAL FOUR COURTS
Lake Havasu Pickleball Courts, the sister company of the Lake Havasu City Pickleball Association, committed to raise $100,000 toward the construction of more courts at Dick Samp Park (DSP). With Mike Delaney’s donation match challenge contribution at year end 2019, we achieved that Phase 2 goal!
The City plans to build 8 more courts at DSP in 2020 completing by May 2021. Our commitment to contribute $100K to the effort was instrumental in the City’s decision to build those courts. To everyone who donated $ or conducted fundraising activities, a huge THANK YOU!
We need to continue our fundraising efforts, though. The new courts will need windscreens, bleachers, shade structures and more. Funding will also be needed for tournament supplies, court maintenance equipment, a storage shed, and so on. Remember also, our ultimate objective is to have 16 courts at DSP so we still have the Final Four Courts to build.
