Welcome to the 2024 Rock'n the HOP. The House of Pickleball (HOP) is a beautiful 15 court pickleball facility in Newnan which is known as the City of Homes. There are six National Register Historic Districts containing some of Georgia's most beautiful homes and commercial buildings. When you aren't playing pickleball, you can enjoy a self-guided driving tour and see the districts that include Antebellum and Victorian homes, the 1904 historic courthouse, Oak Hill Cemetery, the History Depot, and the McRitchie Hollis Museum.
This tournament is a Southern Pickleball Association Sanctioned Tournament. In addition, all 50+ divisions are part of the USSP (United States Senior Pickleball) Tour.
