Spring Smash Tournament - April 24-26, 2026
Our 3rd annual tournament was bigger and better than ever with play spanning three days! We saw 105 unique players over five event categories, resulting in 188 player registrations! We saw players coming in from Invermere, Edgewater, Fairmont, Cranbrook, Golden, Fernie, Kelowna, Calgary and St. Albert. This year also saw our biggest online auction fundraiser yet - with over 130 auction items donated to us by our generous supporters and community. The combined tournament and online auction raised $15,000 towards our Pynelogs Pickleball Courts project!

Spring Smash Tournament - April 12, 2025
Our inaugural Spring Smash Tournament saw a total of 51 players and raised just over $8,000 for our new court development fund! The tournament had two formats - the morning event was a random draw round robin where players signed up individually, and the afternoon event was a more traditional doubles format where players signed up with their partner to play as a team. For 2025, we added a third skill category to the doubles event which create more even play for each skill level.
We could not have pulled this off without the help of our dedicated volunteers, donors and sponsors, and everyone who came out to participate or cheer on the players.
Our 2025 sponsors include:

We joined forces with Pickleball BC to host a tournament in support of Pacific Assistance Dogs Society (PADS) and raised $5,711 through our tournament, online auction, and 50/50 draw. We're so proud to share that we were the second highest fundraising club in all of BC - we may be small but we sure are mighty!
