Bridge Communities to host pickleball tournament to support homeless families

Bridge Communities will host its annual Pickleball Tournament on Saturday, Aug. 1, at Pickled! Wheaton, bringing together players of all skill levels for some friendly competition that supports families facing homelessness.

Participants will bring their best to the court and compete against their fellow community members, while raising money to provide families facing homelessness in the Bridge program with the reliable transportation needed to put them on the road to success.

The event encourages mixed doubles teams and welcomes players looking to test their skills or simply enjoy time with friends.

Trophies, gift cards, and bragging rights will be awarded to the winning players. Tournament highlights include a gift for all players, refreshments, light bites, and lives transformed for families facing homelessness.

There will also be a Signature Raffle, featuring an unforgettable weekend at The American Club and an exclusive round of golf at the Medinah Country Club.

The tournament features two sessions: a morning advanced beginner/intermediate session from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and an afternoon advanced session from 1 to 4:30 p.m.

Tickets are selling quickly as spots fill up. For registration and more information, visit the Bridge Communities’ Pickleball Tournament website: bridgecommunities.org.
