Beginning this month, the YMCA will begin hosting pickleball tournaments for the fastest-growing sport in the U.S. The tournaments are open to members and the community to participate in. To play in the tournament it’s $10 per person, per tournament. Community members will need to pay for a guest pass ($25) on the day of the tournament.
This marks the YMCA’s return to adult sports and additional sports will be added in the near future. A full list of the tournaments is available below. We have also been hosting pickleball etiquette sessions for members in the last few months to help everyone understand the rules and how the Y upholds sportsmanship and respect at all times.
