PickleMadness is a 32-team mixed doubles pickleball tournament presented by Hyde's Hail Mary, Pause Nashville, and [solidcore] — benefiting the Cure Alzheimer's Fund (curealz.org). Whether you've been drilling third-shot drops for months or you just learned what a kitchen is last week — if you can hold a paddle and bring a partner, you're in.
