Huntsville Pickball Members!

Summer is upon us and temperatures are getting hotter!  So, come cool off at HPC’s 2025 “BEAT THE HEAT” Tropical Tournament on Saturday, July 26, 9AM, indoors at the UAH Fitness Center.  See our flyer below for details and a link to register.

We will be supporting Free 2 Teach again by collecting school supply donations.  Some good options are boxes of crayons, scissors, pencils (wood and mechanical), science goggles, glue sticks, paper, calculators, and notebooks.  Any donation will earn you 10 bonus points added to your game points.

Club members only (for liability reasons), so join or renew for $10 before you register.  Come play with old friends and meet some new ones.  If you’d just like to come watch and socialize, that’s okay, too – we’d love to see you there!
