What to Expect at Raise & Rally
Raise & Rally is a community event built for connection, fun, and awareness. Drop in for open play, rotate onto courts, meet new people, and rally behind local families.

• Open play with organized rotations

• Welcoming vibe for first-timers and seasoned players

• Family-friendly atmosphere

• Music, fun moments, and community connection

• Simple giving opportunities onsite (optional)

All courts will be drop-in open play. To help everyone enjoy a great pace of play, courts will be designated by level: 3 Beginner courts, 3 Intermediate courts, 3 Advanced courts, and 3 Family Drop-In courts for casual, mixed-level play. Court assignments may adjust slightly based on participation to keep play flowing.

No—this is a pickleball social with open play for all skill levels.

Not at all. Beginners are welcome!
