★ New Haven Pickleball League presents 'Dink to End DV' - New Haven's first community pickleball tournament!

🥇 We are raising money to support an incredible local organization, The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services. Our goal is to raise $5,000 for this organization to support local families impacted by domestic violence.

🗓️ Men's Doubles and Women's Double will play on Saturday, Nov 16th. Mixed Double will play on Sunday, Nov 17th.

🎁 Registration includes a tournament shirt (long sleeve dri-fit), snacks, and a raffle ticket to a drawing for additional prizes.

▶ In addition to the money raised through registration fees and raffles, players have the opportunity to raise money via the 'give butter' platform. Please text 'dink' to 53-555 or visit https://giveb.co/s/bwAe73.
