Be Still Foundation Pickleball Tournament Co-Hosted with Duke Health

About the Be Still Foundation

The Be Still Foundation recently announced the launch of its inaugural Triumph Over Tremors Pickleball Tournament series, a nationwide event kicking off in April 2026 during National Parkinson’s Awareness Month. The series will bring communities together to support people living with Essential Tremor and Parkinson’s disease.

The Be Still Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to restoring dignity and hope for individuals living with Essential Tremor and tremor-dominant Parkinson’s disease. Through education, advocacy, emotional support, and financial assistance, the foundation helps patients access advanced, incisionless treatment options that can dramatically improve quality of life.

Why Pickleball?
Pickleball has proven to be a powerful and accessible activity for individuals living with Essential Tremor or Parkinson’s disease. The game encourages gentle, rhythmic movement that helps improve balance, coordination, and mobility, while remaining low-impact and easy on the joints. Beyond the physical benefits, pickleball’s social nature fosters connection and community, supporting mental health, motivation, and overall quality of life.
