Centcore and Sportzfolio Launch First-of-its-Kind Pickleball Real Estate Platform

Centcore, a division of Mitesco, Inc. (OTC-QB:MITI), has announced a strategic partnership with Sportzfolio, LLC to launch an innovative Pickleball Properties Listing & Marketing Platform. This digital hub is designed to meet surging demand in the nation's fastest-growing sport by connecting property owners, developers, municipalities, and investors with real estate suited for pickleball courts, centers, and multi-use facilities.

The platform operates strictly as a marketing and advertising service rather than a brokerage, providing a safe, scalable, and cost-effective way to showcase properties without the compliance or liability risks of commission-based models. With tiered listing options, streamlined intake, and integrated digital marketing campaigns, the solution is positioned to become the go-to destination for the pickleball real estate market. Brian Valania, General Manager of Centcore, stated, "This is more than a listing site - it's an engine for exposure and growth. Our Tier-3+ data center infrastructure ensures the platform runs with enterprise-grade reliability and security, while Sportzfolio brings deep expertise in sports-focused market development."

The platform offers free listings with basic property data and photos, tiered paid listings with vetted summaries and lead tracking, marketing bundles with optional promotional campaigns, referral opportunities with licensed professionals, and advertising slots for vendors and partners. This comprehensive approach addresses the critical need for specialized real estate infrastructure as pickleball continues its remarkable growth trajectory, with over 36 million U.S. participants in 2024 and rising numbers fueling demand for dedicated courts and facilities.

Dave Conord, CEO of Sportzfolio, LLC, emphasized the broader significance of this development: "Pickleball is more than a sport - it's a cultural shift that's driving demand for new spaces and new opportunities. By teaming up with Centcore, we can deliver a platform that is secure, scalable, and built to serve the long-term needs of this industry. This is about building an ecosystem where athletes, developers, and communities all win." The partnership leverages Centcore's data center resources available at https://www.centcoreusa.com and Sportzfolio's sports technology expertise to create a foundation for pickleball's next decade of expansion.

The launch of this platform represents a significant development in the sports infrastructure market, providing stakeholders with tools to identify opportunities, drive visibility, and accelerate project execution in the rapidly evolving pickleball space. As municipalities and private developers seek to capitalize on the sport's popularity, this platform offers a centralized solution for matching available properties with the growing demand for pickleball facilities, potentially accelerating the development of courts and centers across the country.
