At The Advocates, we love summer and all the opportunities warm weather brings. Many of our attorneys and staff members are avid runners, cyclists, hikers, and athletes who love spending their days being active with their families and friends.
To this end, we are thrilled to announce that we are hosting a free pickleball tournament this July. We hope this will become an annual event that brings the community together for friendly competition and socialization. The tournament will be held on Saturday, July 13th, from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in Holladay (address below).
Pickleball is a tennis-like sport that has taken the US by storm over the last several years and has quickly become a favorite for people of all ages. It is relatively easy to learn for beginners but can be fast-paced and competitive when all players are skilled.
This tournament will be doubles only—if you do not have a partner, you will be paired with another participant. When you register, you will be asked to assess your own skill level so that we can match you with a partner and opponents of similar ability. Use this guide and the reference table below to get an idea of your level.
1.0-2.5: Beginner
3.0-4.5: Intermediate
5.0 and above: Advanced
This event will be family-friendly—there will be bubbles and a face painter for children and a playground next to the courts. Finger foods and beverages will be provided for free. Additional snacks are available for purchase at the snack bar.
There will be prizes for the top three teams:
- 1st place: $250 gift card
- 2nd place: $100 gift card
- 3rd place: $50 gift card
