Meet the Founders

Brad Klopman and Cynthia Morgan are a husband-and-wife duo with a love (ahem, obsession) for pickleball, a flair for fun, and a competitive streak that’s earned them podium spots in tournaments and local leagues alike. They founded Giddy Up Pickleball to create unforgettable pickleball events, from corporate team-building and retreats to bachelor and bachelorette parties, private events, round-robins, and tournaments.

Long before Giddy Up, Brad and Cynthia were in the business of bringing people together. They built The Cohost Company, a pioneering Airbnb management and hospitality company that shaped Joshua Tree’s now-thriving luxury vacation rental market. Over the course of a decade, they welcomed tens of thousands of guests, built a reputation for elevated desert hospitality, and ultimately grew and sold the company. That experience taught them how to anticipate what guests need, sweat the details, and create the kind of experience people remember long after they leave.

They’re also the creators of Desert Reset, a nationally recognized retreat rated the “#1 Spiritual Wellness Retreat in the USA” by BookRetreats. Together, these experiences have given Brad and Cynthia more than a decade of expertise in hospitality, event design, and creating experiences people remember.

Today, they bring that same hospitality-first approach to Giddy Up pickleball events in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, the Coachella Valley, and destinations nationwide. Whether they’re producing a corporate pickleball event for a large team or a private celebration with friends, the goal is the same: make it seamless, inclusive, elevated, and ridiculously fun.

Whether your guests are seasoned players or picking up a paddle for the first time, Brad and Cynthia make sure everyone feels welcome, engaged, and ready to play.

Saddle up. These two are redefining what it means to play hard and party harder—pickleball style.

Giddy Up Pickleball Events is proud to partner with Paradise Pickleball in the Coachella Valley.
