"Kaitlyn has made a huge impact on the pickleball community, and the kind of passion she has for the sport is incredibly rare. She is the perfect addition to Dill Dinkers, bringing knowledge of professional pickleball trends while engaging a large network of supporters."

As the newest Dill Dinkers Global Brand Ambassador, Kerr will be involved in a variety of initiatives, including promoting club memberships and openings, participating in marketing campaigns and engaging in community outreach programs. She will also represent Dill Dinkers at major events, further solidifying the brand's presence in the United States and supporting Dill Dinkers' growth globally.

"Words can't express how excited I am to partner with Dill Dinkers. The company is a proven leader in the indoor pickleball space, creating the type of experience so many players seek," said Kerr. "The Dill Dinkers team does a fantastic job creating welcoming communities and offering a space for players to challenge themselves both physically and mentally. I am eager to partner with Dill Dinkers to make a positive impact on the sport and help fuel this next phase of growth."
