Pickleball and philanthropy unite this fall as the Seagate Golf Club in Delray Beach prepares to host the inaugural Pickle for Protection pickleball tournament, benefiting the Child Rescue Coalition (CRC). Slated for October 14, 2024, the event will bring together players and supporters to raise funds for CRC’s mission to combat child sexual abuse and exploitation.
The event kicks off at 8:30 a.m. with check-in, followed by a warm-up session at 9:00 a.m. The tournament, structured as a friendly mixer, will officially begin at 9:30 a.m., offering players of all levels the chance to participate in a sport that’s growing rapidly across the country. Registration is open, and sponsorship opportunities are available, with proceeds going directly to CRC’s work in protecting children globally.
The “Pickle for Protection” tournament is not just about competition—it’s about community action. The Child Rescue Coalition, a Delray Beach-based nonprofit, is known for its cutting-edge technology that helps law enforcement track and apprehend predators involved in child exploitation. By participating in this event, players and sponsors are contributing directly to these efforts.
