Pickleball, the sport, which is one of the fastest-growing in the US, is rapidly becoming adopted by locals looking to stay active. Incorporating many elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong, the sport has been a big hit locally and has many players that are anxious to make their competitive debuts.
The annual tournament, which will combine Tennis and Pickleball events for the first time, will run from July 2nd – 9th.
Sponsored by Deloitte after a pandemic-induced one-year hiatus, the event has grown to become a player-favorite on the tennis calendar in Bermuda, attracting participants to establish, defend or improve their ranking.
Hosted at Pomander Gate Tennis Club, the tennis events will be sanctioned by the Bermuda Lawn Tennis Association and will offer valuable ranking points.
“We are excited to once again have Deloitte as our tournament sponsor for this premier sporting event in Bermuda. Along with a full slate of tennis events we are thrilled to welcome the pickleball community to this year’s tournament.” – Tournament Director, Rich Daley
