This year's proceeds will benefit the latest innovation at Pathfinder Village, The Farmstead Market and Community Center. This exciting LEED-Silver sustainable project will open in 2026, repurposing a 19th century farmstead into a public community center and a full-time fresh produce and grocery market, a store for quality items produced by entrepreneurs from the disabilities community, a culinary training kitchen and classrooms to support the pre-vocational and community employment programs through Pathfinder's Adult Day Services. Learn more about this exciting investment that will impact our entire area!
Players should bring their favorite rackets and are expected to follow The Clark Sports Center's Rules of Court Etiquette.
The Pickleball Playoff is a sister event inspired by the success of the Pathfinder Village Tennis Classic, which has raised nearly $300,000 to support the Village Foundation's Scholarship Endowment. This fund assists Village residents and students with tuition and fees, and allows them to continue their paths of growth and independence at Pathfinder's world-renowned community.
