Meet PicklePalz inventor, Seventeen-year-old high school honor student Adam Mendelsohn. While most high school seniors are navigating the daily grind of classes and college applications, Adam is running a nonprofit, sitting on an advisory board for Holocaust education, and now launching a tech platform designed to revolutionize how people play one of the fastest-growing sports in the country: Pickleball.


Born out of a casual father-son match in Bozeman, Montana, PicklePalz is the newest digital innovation to hit the court. The platform helps players connect based on skill level, location, and schedule, solving a common challenge in the pickleball community: finding the right partner at the right time.

“My dad and I were playing, and I realized how hard it was to find people nearby who were around my skill level and available to play,” said Adam. “So I started sketching an app that could do just that and more.”

Backed by global IT powerhouse A3Logics, and with mentorship from his father Jason Mendelsohn and the company’s VP of Sales Kelly C. Powell, Adam turned his idea into a full-fledged app now available to players nationwide. Through PicklePalz, users can locate courts, schedule matches, and even earn achievements, bridging the gap between casual fun and community-building.

A Heart for Helping Others
Adam’s tech ambitions are rooted in a larger mission. He’s the founder of Mendelsohn Math Tutoring, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit offering free academic support to students in need. With 15 tutors and over 500 students served, Adam is no stranger to creating solutions that uplift others.

He also serves on the advisory board of Hate Ends Now, an organization that promotes Holocaust education through immersive experiences, an effort he says reflects his commitment to both learning from history and building human connections.

“Whether it’s tutoring or pickleball, I’m drawn to projects that bring people together,” Adam said. “PicklePalz is about more than just matches, it’s about creating moments of community in a world that needs more of them.”

A Future Tech Leader in the Making
For A3Logics, Adam represents the future of innovation. “Working with Adam has been an incredible experience,” said Kelly C. Powell. “His passion and clarity of vision are beyond his years. At A3Logics, we were proud to provide the technical muscle behind the app and help bring a young entrepreneur’s dream to life.”
