JAYKAY at Tennis & Friends 2025

On October 12–13, the Foro Italico in Rome will once again fill with energy, smiles, and movement for Tennis & Friends, the major event dedicated to health and sport promoted by the Italian Tennis and Padel Federation (FITP).

This year, among the tennis and padel courts and the many activities open to the public, there will also be a JAYKAY Pickleball court — giving everyone the chance to try the sport that’s rapidly winning over Italy.

Sport, health, and fun

Tennis & Friends has long been a landmark event for promoting a healthy and active lifestyle.
Every year, thousands of people take part to enjoy free medical check-ups, watch sports exhibitions, and discover new ways to combine movement and wellbeing.

In this setting, Pickleball perfectly embodies the spirit of the event: it’s an accessible, dynamic, and social sport suitable for all ages.
It helps improve coordination, agility, and cardiovascular health — but above all, it brings people together through movement, laughter, and connection.

A JAYKAY court to experience Pickleball

During the event, the JAYKAY court will welcome visitors, athletes, and enthusiasts who will be able to try the game alongside FITP instructors and ambassadors.
It’s a great opportunity to experience Pickleball firsthand — in a setting that celebrates both the passion for sport and the importance of health.

Being part of Tennis & Friends means supporting an FITP project with strong social value, and reaffirming our commitment to help Pickleball grow in Italy as a sport for everyone — simple, fun, and full of positive energy.

Move well. Feel better. Together.

Pickleball keeps bringing people together — across generations, stories, and lifestyles.
And at Tennis & Friends 2025, that message will come through loud and clear: wellbeing starts with movement… and a smile.
