Inaugural Pickleball Tournament

Sunday, August 3, 2025

Grab your paddle and get ready to rally for a great cause! We’re serving up our first-ever Girls on the Run Greater Cincinnati Pickleball Tournament - a fun, fast-paced day on the courts to support a mission that moves girls forward. All proceeds benefit Girls on the Run Greater Cincinnati, an afterschool program that empowers girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident through physical activity and connection. With pressures on girls’ mental and emotional well-being at an all-time high, the need for our program has never been greater. Each season, we support over 2,000 girls at 150+ sites—and nearly half receive scholarship assistance. Your participation helps ensure every girl has the opportunity to grow stronger, build confidence, and finish her season proud. Let’s rally together, on and off the court!

Paddles with Purpose

This year, we're trading heels for court shoes and bringing our community together in a new, active, and inclusive way. Instead of our traditional Sneaker Soiree, we’re hosting a fun and competitive pickleball tournament—because movement is at the heart of everything we do.

Proceeds from this event will directly support Girls on the Run Greater Cincinnati, a life-changing afterschool program that empowers girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident through physical activity, connection, and skill-building. At a time when girls are facing unprecedented pressures around self-esteem, mental health, and belonging, our program is more vital than ever.

Each year, we serve more than 2,000 girls across 150+ sites, and nearly half rely on scholarship support to participate. Your involvement helps ensure that every girl has the chance to cross the finish line stronger than she started.
