Welcome to the Hockomock Area YMCA/SAFE Coalition Charity Pickleball Tournament! When you register to play, you help improve the lives of many in our Franklin community and beyond. All proceeds will be split between these two nonprofit organizations.

The Hockomock Area YMCA is an inclusive nonprofit organization of men, women and children joined together by a shared commitment to nurture the potential of kids, promote healthy living and foster a sense of social responsibility. Proceeds from this tournament will benefit the YMCA’s Reach Out campaign. The Reach Out for Youth and Families Annual Campaign is the primary vehicle in subsidizing confidential scholarship assistance and subsidized programs. Funds raised provide confidential scholarship assistance, giving Y experiences including summer camp, childcare and teen programs to local children and families in need, regardless of their ability to pay.

SAFE is a judgement free community organization relentlessly committed to educating and supporting those affected by substance use disorder and mental health concerns across southeastern Massachusetts. Staffed by trusted, trained professionals and peer support volunteers, SAFE compassionately empowers individuals and their loved ones by breaking down barriers to treatment and emotional support in a way that inspires success on the journey to recovery. Proceeds from this tournament will fund SAFE's work in educating and supporting those with substance misuse and mental health issues.

No refunds after the April 19th registration closing date. If you withdraw prior to April 19th, 2024 you will be issued a refund less a $10 processing fee. All refunds will be processed after the tournament is over.
