Some highlights from our amazing Youth Tournament benefiting Children’s Health.

Thank you for all the volunteers for their help and support throughout the day!

Most importantly, thank you to our players and families for believing in our first event and taking this journey with us. You didn’t simply participate in a tournament—you helped us begin building what we hope will become a lasting community for junior pickleball.

You were there at the beginning. That makes you part of Stinky D**kers history.

WHAT A DAY. 🏓🔥

Our inaugural Stinky D**kers Youth Pickleball Tournament benefiting Children’s Health is officially in the books — and we could not be more proud of how it came together.

We started the morning with an incredible turnout for Parent + Child Doubles, rolled straight into a great Coed Doubles competition, and finished the day with Singles. From the first serve to the final medal, these kids brought it.

What impressed us most wasn’t just the pickleball. It was the sportsmanship, resilience and attitude we saw all day long. Tough points. Close games. Adversity. Nobody folded. They reset, competed, encouraged each other and kept playing. Watching that was something special.

Circuit 31 Fitness brought another level of energy with the Skills Challenge, and it became a real event of its own throughout the day. 💪🏓

A huge thank-you to ACE Pickleball Club – Plano for hosting us, to every volunteer who gave their time and energy, and to the parents and families who showed up, cheered loudly and helped make the day what it was.

And none of this happens without the businesses and friends who believed in what we were building:

🏆 Platinum Sponsors: Nature Wins / The Dr. Ardis Show, DecisionHR and DataBank
🥈 Silver Sponsors: Business Technology Partners and Closet Factory
🤝 In-Kind Sponsors: Circuit 31 Fitness and Phnx Visuals
🎁 Thank you to Pickleball Besties and Southern Pickleball for contributing prizes for our players.

Most of all, thank you to every young player who stepped onto the court today. You competed hard, represented yourselves well and reminded us exactly why Stinky D**kers wanted to build something around youth and family pickleball in the first place.

This was tournament number one.

We’re just getting started. 💚

There’s something pretty special about coming home to New York City and experiencing a sport I love in a completely new way.

Today was my first time playing pickleball back in my hometown, and it couldn’t have been in a better setting — a clinic with Coach Rob Ichelson at CityPickle at Wollman Rink in Central Park.

Great coaching, beautiful courts, an absolutely unreal NYC backdrop, and that unmistakable energy you only get in this city. 🏓🗽

I’ve played pickleball in a lot of places, but looking out over the courts with the Manhattan skyline behind them was pretty amazing.

NYC + pickleball = hard to beat.
