The Summer Classic Pickleball tournament in Santa Rosa, CA will seek to provide a professional, community-driven experience for NorCal competitive players looking for a well-run, full-service tournament at an affordable price. Included in your registration fee you will receive player perks (TBA), free lunch (Fri-Sun) for all players and their fans, free player snacks, medals for bracket winners, and a free bottle of local wine for medal winners.

A myriad of local and regional sponsors will be on hand to offer merchandise and player services. Raffle baskets will be offered via ticket sales. All proceeds from the raffle baskets will be a pass-through donation to Sonoma County Pickleball Club, Ltd for the Santa Rosa Permanent Complex Fund. Wine Country Premier Pickleball supports fundraising efforts to build more facilities to accommodate the exploding population of local pickleball players.
