Pickleball Four Exciting Summer Tournaments: The summer season at The Pickleball Space is heating up with the introduction of four thrilling tournaments tailored to players of all levels, promising an exhilarating blend of competition and camaraderie.
Director of development and programs, John Solema, expressed enthusiasm about the upcoming tournaments, highlighting the facility’s track record in organising successful events. “These four summer tournaments are strategically timed to offer players a chance to engage in competitive play during the Arizona summer, a time when tournament options are typically scarce,” Solema remarked.
Players are welcome to the Glendale location starting on Saturday, June 1, to compete for bronze, silver, and gold medals across a variety of competitive brackets.
Each tournament presents a unique bracket style and caters to varying skill levels, offering players the opportunity to compete in singles, doubles, and mixed doubles formats, categorised by age groups and official Dynamic Universal Pickleball Rating (DUPR) skill levels. From round-robin setups to double elimination formats, participants can expect an electrifying atmosphere and intense matches.
Solema emphasised the distinctiveness of tournament play compared to recreational games, noting the heightened level of competition and adrenaline-fueled ambiance.
Positioned conveniently between players from different regions, The Pickleball Space serves as an ideal venue for midsummer tournament action. Solema underscored the facility’s commitment to diversifying its programming beyond tournaments, offering multiple options such as leagues, clinics, and kids camps, catering to a wide range of skill levels and preferences.
“The tournaments aren’t the only thing we do, We do have other events going on where players can reserve courts. We have leagues, we have clinics for lessons and we have kids camp. … What’s great about The Pickleball Space is that we have a variety of programs and events, catering to a variety of skill sets — men’s events, women’s events, co-ed events.”-(Solema)
With a growing player population and an array of training classes and activities, Solema expressed optimism about the facility’s future prospects. “Anyone who may have heard of pickleball, but not sure of where to start, we do have three intro classes here at The Pickleball Space,” Solema said. “And it’s an opportunity to learn right away versus taking a few months and taking time watching YouTube videos. So, we have that opportunity for people to come in and actually learn to play the game.” Solema said, extending an invitation for all enthusiasts to explore the facility, engage in the programs, and connect with the vibrant pickleball community.
