Grab your paddle and your people! Main Street Connect’s “All In for Inclusion” Pickleball Fest & Tournament is coming to Dill Dinkers in North Bethesda this November, and everyone is invited to play, cheer, or just hang out.

Schedule for the Day

• 12:00 pm – Check-in and warm up
• 12:30 pm – Tournament begins
• 2:00 pm – Tournament rounds conclude; brief program begins

The fun starts with pickleball but doesn’t stop there! Once your tournament rounds are done, stick around to play casual games or cheer on the finalists with the rest of the crowd. There’s plenty of space for spectators, so bring your biggest fan club. Spectator tickets can be reserved in advance or at the event itself!

The final portion of the event will include a brief presentation about Main Street Connect’s mission and impact along with the presentation of prizes to tournament winners.

Every player registration, spectator ticket, sponsorship, and t-shirt purchase helps Main Street Connect create meaningful opportunities for people of all abilities to connect, participate, and thrive in our community! 

Want to join in the fun as a tournament player?  Here are the details:

• This is a doubles tournament. Each player must register individually and provide the name of their partner during registration.
• This round robin pickleball tournament features Advanced Beginner and Intermediate brackets, so you can compete at a level that’s fun for your level of play. This event is not intended for complete beginners; lessons will not be provided on the day of the event.
• The cost is $100 per player. This includes: your spot in the bracket plus a branded event performance t-shirt. (We will have M, L, and XL size t-shirts available for anyone registers from now through November 11.)
• The top 3 finishers in each bracket take home prizes, but really, everyone walks away a winner because participation supports Main Street Connect’s movement of inclusion in our community.
• Games run 10–12 minutes with a 4-minute break between rounds as teams rotate, and every registered team is guaranteed at least 3 games before brackets narrow to the top two teams in each division for semi-finals and finals.
• Registration for tournament players closes on Wednesday, November 11 at 11:59 pm. When registering to play, be ready to write the name of your pickleball partner in the registration form as well as submit your t-shirt size.
