CHICAGO, IL. — July 8, 2026
Vizual Edge, the leading online vision training platform trusted by athletes, teams, and organizations worldwide, today announced a new partnership with USA Pickleball, becoming the Official Vision Training Partner of USA Pickleball.
Through the partnership, USA Pickleball members will receive exclusive access to Vizual Edge's personalized vision training platform, helping players train the visual skills that support performance in pickleball, including reaction time, ball tracking, focus, and decision-making.
As part of the program, USA Pickleball members will be eligible for a complimentary month of Vizual Edge training, with premium members also receiving 3D glasses as part of their member benefit package.
"Pickleball is a sport built on quick reactions, anticipation, and visual decision-making," said Alex Kikos, CEO of Vizual Edge. "We're excited to partner with USA Pickleball to make visual performance training more accessible to players of all ages and skill levels. Whether someone is competing at a high level or simply looking to improve their game and stay sharp, this partnership creates a unique opportunity to experience the benefits of vision training firsthand."
Unlike traditional fitness programs, Vizual Edge focuses on the visual and cognitive skills that drive athletic performance. Members complete an initial visual performance assessment and receive a personalized training plan that can be accessed from their own laptop or tablet, combining traditional and 3D training exercises in a convenient online format.
The partnership reflects a shared commitment to helping players perform at their best while supporting long-term visual and cognitive health.
"At USA Pickleball, we're committed to providing our members with meaningful benefits that help them enjoy the game and reach their full potential," said Christian Portaro, Vice President of Partnerships, USA Pickleball. "Vision plays a critical role in pickleball performance, from tracking the ball to making split-second decisions at the kitchen line. Through our partnership with Vizual Edge, we're excited to give players of all ages and skill levels access to innovative training tools that can help elevate their game while supporting long-term visual and cognitive wellness." The partnership will also include member education initiatives, exclusive member offers, digital content, and integration into USA Pickleball's member experience.
