A past president of the National Academy of Kinesiology, he has been recognized for his contribution to sport by the National Recreation and Park Association and by his induction into the National Association for Sport and Physical Education Hall of Fame. He has received Distinguished Alumni awards from Hutchinson High School, Emporia State University in Kansas (where he earned a bachelor’s degree), the University of Montana (where he earned a master’s degree), and the University of Illinois.

He has won several national championships and, along with Julie, his wife of 30 years, has built Pictona, a 49-court pickleball facility in Holly Hill, Florida, which is widely acclaimed as the best pickleball facility in the country. As part of their philanthropic efforts, Rainer and Julie donated the facility to the City of Holly Hill.
