If you are a pickleball enthusiast, get ready to make a difference! This year, a group of passionate pickleballers (weekend players, amateurs and semi-pros) is coming together to host a pickleball event to raise funds for suicide prevention.

The “Pickleball for a Purpose”, organized by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, is coming on April 08, 2023 at Meador Park, Springfield, MO.

This pickleball tournament will be a fun and engaging way for people in the Springfield area to promote AFSP and mental health resources!

Whether you’ve been playing for years or have never picked up a paddle, this is meant for you! We will give a demonstration of the pickleball rules for any new players.

Bring your own paddles if you have a favorite set, but we will provide them as well.
Winners will receive a gift card prize!

By bringing together the love of the game and the goal of suicide prevention, this event is an exciting opportunity to make a meaningful impact while having fun.
