| July 11, 2023
Amateurs, pros, and fans alike will have the chance to experience the comfort and warmth of ORORO.
LAS VEGAS, NV (Feb. 22, 2022) — ORORO Heated Apparel is excited to announce their new partnership with the PPA Tour which grants them naming rights and more over the PPA’s upcoming inaugural tournament in Lakeville, MN. The ORORO PPA Indoor National Championships will be Thursday, Feb. 24 though Sunday, Feb. 27 at the Life Time Lakeville facility.
ORORO Heated Apparel’s mission is to give customers the chance to be active, no matter what the temperature is or where they are in the world. Sponsoring an event built around an active and enthusiastic community like pickleball aligns with ORORO’s purpose to help people challenge the climate. Representatives from ORORO will be on-site during the tournament to interact with pickleball fans and competitors and give guests more information about how heated apparel works and can be purchased.
“Our team is looking forward to sponsoring the PPA Tour’s latest tournament. Learning the ins and outs of pickleball has been a fun challenge this past year. Being active while staying warm is a challenge we’re ready to meet. This is also a uniquely great opportunity to meet the people we help keep warm on a day-to-day basis,” said Mark Hu, Co-Founder of ORORO.
“It’s our first time hosting a tournament where the temperatures will fall below freezing outside of the facility,” said Conner Ogden, Head of Partnerships at the PPA. “We are thrilled to have ORORO joining us to meet the needs of avid participants and look forward to furthering their mission of helping players hit the courts running, no matter the weather.”
The PPA Tour consists of large-scale professional tournaments where players move through double-elimination draws and compete for points and the largest prize money payouts in the sport. The PPA Tour invites amateur players to come and play at the same venues as the best professional pickleball players and also welcomes thousands of fans to each of its events. Players can register to play a tournament at www.ppatour.com/ppa-tour or buy tickets to watch at www.tickets.ppatour.com.
