Club Med Miches Playa Esmeralda

One week to celebrate pickleball in Dominican Republic

We hosted our very first press trip at our Exclusive Collection Resort, from April 13 to 18 in collaboration with our partner Fairgrounds, a key player in the Ontario pickleball scene and rapidly expanding across Canada.

The objective was to showcase pickleball through a dedicated program for our GMs, the production of fresh and dynamic new content, as well as a series of activations centered around this sport.

Fairgrounds capsule collection

A dedicated pickleball capsule collection was created, combining performance and lifestyle. It includes technical and lifestyle t-shirts, visors, bucket hats, and branded paddles. The collection will be showcased during specific events in collaboration with Fairgrounds and the Club Med Toronto boutique.

Throughout the week, GMs enjoyed an exclusive program led by expert coaches.

Three key moments structured the week:

  • Open initiation sessions for all levels,
  • A “One Point Slam” tournament, a fast-paced format
  • Liveball (LVBL) sessions, a high-energy cardio version of pickleball

This program highlights Club Med’s ability to deliver innovative, engaging, and accessible sports experiences for all profiles.

3. A dedicated program for content creators

A tailored program was designed to introduce or deepen the practice of pickleball, while showcasing the Club Med experience and the partnership with Fairgrounds. The agenda included content creation, social activations, and shared moments around the sport, such as “Pickle & Aperitif” experiences and a final team tournament.

This initiative fully aligns with Club Med’s strategy: to offer unique experiences aligned with emerging trends and combining performance, fun & conviviality.
