The Valerie Fund will be hosting its first pickleball tournament, organized by its Young Professionals Network (YPN), to fundraise for children treated for cancer and blood disorders.

The tournament will consist of friendly matches in the name of charity and will be co-ed doubles for levels 3.0 and under and 3.5 and over. The format will be a round robin, with each team having a minimum of 3 games, one game to 15, win by 1.

The tournament results will NOT impact DUPR. The top 3 places resulting from the round robin format will receive medals.

Registration fee is $70 per player for an event. Registrants will only be able to select one event.

Sign-in will open at 2pm and play start time is 3pm.

The Valerie Fund provides psychosocial services for children with cancer and blood disorders across our 8 Valerie Fund Children's Centers in New Jersey, New York (including Long Island), and the metro Philadelphia area. For more information, visit www.thevaleriefund.org.
