Frank Arico has been honoured by his pickleball club, Runnymede Royals – with the inaugural award that bears his name.
The club will present the Frank Arico Award annually, and the man himself is the first recipient in recognition of his contributions to the club and the sport more widely.
Frank was instrumental in establishing Pickleball England, serving as a director, and has since helped to set up the European Pickleball Federation, of which he is now president.
For the Runnymede Royals, his technological expertise has been invaluable, devising club session planners, payment plans, league selection process, the website and more.
And he was recognised for all his work at the club’s 2025 AGM.
