Description
Courtside Pickleball and Tennis Club is proud to support Meals on Wheels Delaware by hosting the 2nd annual Battle of the Paddles Pickleball Tournament. All proceeds will go to Meals On Wheels Delaware’s (MOWD) mission of raising funds, other resources, and awareness to support meal delivery programs to homebound seniors in Delaware. Last year, 825,000 hot and nutritious meals were delivered to over 6,600 seniors statewide. Please help us support this worthy cause!
The tournament will be held September 7th with mens and womens doubles in the morning, a break to recharge, and mixed doubles in the afternoon. Registration will be done initially at the skill level, and age brackets will be determined after the close of registration. Every attempt will be made to split ages into brackets of more than six teams, but in the event that this cannot be done fairly to all players, we reserve the right to create smaller brackets.
