In our 5th year Jammin for Joy has become a premier tourney in North Georgia. It is a fun, competitive tourney to make a difference in the lives of those we serve at The Joy House. We are moving to 4 days this year to meet demand and invite more pickleball friends to the party. This is not the "tournament where you play with the pros, but where you're treated like a pro." Swag bag like no other, free delicious lunch and snacks, great door prizes and our incredible raffles. Each of the last three years we've closed registration early turning people away as word has spread in the pickleball community about our tourneys uniqueness of being great fun, with a high-level of competitive play.

We'll have round-robin play where we seek to insure you play at least 60 points. If your division has more than one pool we'll seek to have medal round games with top teams advancing to single elimination bracket. For Men's and Women's Doubles days we will seek to have a medal round for each division but reserve the right to strictly do round-robin. From past experience, because Mixed day has the most teams participating we typically do strictly round-robin, no medal round.

Skill levels: 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5+

Men's & Women's Doubles - 60+ - Thursday, August 14th

Mixed Doubles - 60+ & Women's Doubles (Under 60) - Friday, August 15th

Mixed Doubles (Under 60) - Saturday, August 16th

Men's Doubles (Under 60) - Sunday August 17th

Player Comments from previous years:

Steve, can’t thank you enough for a great weekend of Pickleball. Your tournament is probably the best that I have ever been a part of. Thanks for making it a players tournament. God willing I will be back next year to take part once again. Hope to see you on the courts again soon. God Bless.

You did it again! Another fantastic tournament! You are good at this tournament stuff!!! So much fun. The whole weekend was full of happy energy and smiles and laughs. Not to mention all the yummy food, snacks, swag bag, raffle and door prizes! You succeeded in treating us like we were the pros! Thanks for such a fun weekend!

Thank you for another great event! You and your team do such a great job putting this on - we wish you did more than just one a year! ..........Thanks again to you and your team!

Great tournament, great fun, great goodie bags and great pickleball! Looking forward to another girls trip next year to do it again!

This year's tourney will once again be sanctioned by Southern Pickleball. We are excited to again be partnering with the great folks at Southern Pickleball. All medal winners will become eligible to play in the 2025 Southern Pickleball Championships. For more information on the Southern Pickleball Association visit southernpickleball.com.

We will seek to do the best age segmentation possible, but reserve the right to merge age/skill levels to provide the best tournament experience for everyone.

No refunds after Friday August 1st

TOURNEY UPDATE - Updated 6/24/25 11:00 AM

Thanks again for the unbelievable response to Jammin for Joy 2025. At this point our tourney capacity has been reached with 500 players in the field.

From now until the tourney those coming off of the WaitList will be due to a team withdrawing. From past experience that will happen for a few as we're more than 2+ months from tourney.

I'm still allowing teams to register on the WaitList, but both partners must be registered to be considered for entry into the tourney field if we have an opening.
