About Christian Franke
The highlight of my pickleball career includes earning the 2026 Sportsmanship Award at DUPR Nationals and winning the 2025 APP Collegiate National Championship. I served as Co-President of UF Club Pickleball for three years, leading the team through MLP-style events while emphasizing leadership, teamwork, and competitive growth. I look forward to continuing that impact with Team All Florida. Some of 2026 wins include a mixed doubles Gold medal in the US Open 12-24 Mixed Open, Bronze in Men's Open and a notable win over Jack Munro in March at the APP 2026 Nationals.
