Help support UMaine's growing Pickleball Club & Midcoast Rec's Youth Programming by playing in this competitive tournament. We'd love to see you at the Camden National Bank Pickleball Arena in Rockport where we have eight dedicated PB courts, a comfortable lobby, and courtside viewing for fans.
As you may know, UMaine's pickleballers pay for all of their own travel, lodging & food as they compete up and down the east coast. Your entry fee will help ensure that all who qualify will be able to practice, learn and play.
At Midcoast Rec, we invite local school groups and homeschooled youth to ice skating, tennis, and pickleball for four sessions of free instruction each season. As a community-supported non-profit, we also offer generous scholarships for youth programming & summer camps. Your support helps us ensure that all kids can participate in programming that helps to develop social & physical skills. The net proceeds will be split between these two entities helping young people connect through sport.
