About this Event
Is this fun, friendly, competitive and safe/supportive tournament for you?
If you’re looking for a fun tournament where you play at the top of your game and feel confident and comfortable, you’re our kind of Chick!
And....If you love the thought of playing at impressive uber cool pickleball courts that are beyond belief and even have their own you-gotta-see-it-to-believe-it TIKI BAR courtside, you're going to love our upcoming Battle for the Crown Tournament at Oxford Downs in Central Florida!
Who we are:
PickleballChicks is an established “Chicks-Only” event host in the USA and Canada with 20+ sold out tournaments under our belts. We've built a reputation in The Villages as a place where Chicks come to shine and we're stoked to bringing out Crown Tournaments to Oxford Downs this fall!
Our Vibe:
When you walk up to our registration desk, you’ll immediately feel the love. We create a welcoming, sassy vibe that helps melt away tournament anxiety. No one feels like running back to the car to cry at a PickleballChicks tournament. We’re all about the love of the game and respect and kindness toward our fellow players. We're also very competitive so come with your A game and be prepared to put all those hours of play into action in the Battle for the Crown!
A humble brag:
We’re pretty darn good at running our cool tournaments which is why you'll get lots of information ahead of the tournament date (us Chicks love to communicate!) and on game day; you’ll be in and out in just around 3 hours. We Chicks know how to get sh*t done 🙂 so you can get to your free icy cold pop at the Tiki Bar faster!
