About Us

Hi, I’m Gregory de la Cruz, and I’m thrilled to welcome you to Dinker Dates, the dating site I created exclusively for pickleball players! As someone who has experienced the magic of pickleball—on and off the court—I wanted to create a space where people who share a passion for this sport can connect, form friendships, and maybe even find love. Whether you’re a die-hard dinker or just love the social side of the game, Dinker Dates is here to bring players like you together.

 

This site is also deeply personal to me because it helps fund my private foundation, the delaCruz Foundation. Through the foundation, I’m able to give back by supporting Native American communities and preserving the natural beauty of Costa Rica.

When you join Dinker Dates, you’re not just exploring potential matches—you’re joining a community that’s serving up love, laughter, and meaningful change. Let’s paddle into something special together!
