On November 8th, DanceBlue is hosting a fun-filled pickleball tournament at the Lexington Ice Center from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Join us for a day of friendly competition, community, and DanceBlue spirit as we come together to kick off Gold Ribbon Week and support an incredible cause.
Whether you’re a seasoned pickleball player or picking up a paddle for the first time, everyone is welcome to participate! Grab a teammate or sign up as an individual for a great opportunity to get active, connect with others, and show your support for DanceBlue.
The tournament will begin with 15-minute pool play games, followed by 20-minute tournament games. Each team is guaranteed at least two games, with the top 12 teams advancing to the tournament bracket. Additionally, the top two fundraising teams will be guaranteed a spot in the tournament bracket, giving participants an extra opportunity to make an impact through their fundraising efforts!
Registration starts at $20 for individuals and $35 for teams. All proceeds from the event will support the DanceBlue Hematology/Oncology Clinic at Golisano’s Children’s Hospital and the patients and families it serves.
We can’t wait to see you at the Lexington Ice Center for a day of pickleball, community, and DanceBlue spirit as we kick off Gold Ribbon Week! For any questions regarding the event, please contact community@danceblue.org.
