Serving Up Success with The Big Serve
On October 19, BBBS will host its inaugural pickleball tournament – The Big Serve. Based on feedback from our Board of Directors, Matches, and community interest, BBBS opted to sunset the run/walk and Fall Fair events in favor of this fresh, new endeavor.
The Big Serve presents opportunities for friendly competition, while making a lasting impact on local youth through the power of mentorship. Join us as we serve up fun, pickleball, community, and the opportunity to support the Bigs, Littles, and families BBBS serves.
To be held at Darden Towe Park, 9am-5pm, the tournament is a Round Robin format with mixed, fixed teams of two, using Franklin X-40 balls. Due to a 10-court limit, registration is capped at 120 players, so all events can be completed before dusk. Start times and groupings will be released 48 hours prior.
We are grateful to our presenting sponsor Morris & Wells Wealth Management and Beth Morris, the Chair of our Board of Directors, for their deep commitment to BBBS’s mission and work.
Our thanks also to Red Light Management; UVA Orthopaedics; Dalgliesh Gilpin Paxton Architects; Taylor Associates; Greenwood Homes; MRIGlobal; Lauren W. Morris, State Farm Agency; media partner WTJU 91.1 FM; and a host of in-kind sponsors including Bodo’s Bagels, Play Henry, Take It Away, The Market, Three Notched Brewery, Wegmans, and more.
