The Huntsville (AL) Pickleball Club, consisting of 300 members, sponsored a very successful one-day tournament to benefit the local Rock Steady Boxing program. The Rock Steady program is a nationally recognized, scientifically based boxing\/exercise program that slows the progression of Parkinson\u2019s disease. The program is based on three concepts: connection, consistency, and compassion. Our chapter has over 200 Parkinson\u2019s participants that workout daily with certified Rock Steady boxing coaches. Huntsville Pickleball Club, with the help of SSIPA members, Alice Tym and Bart Brannon, raised $2,340.00 for our local chapter of Rock Steady Boxing. Not only did our tournament entrants play in a round robin age\/skill competition, but they also had an opportunity to win points (for a 5.00 donation) against Alice and Bart. Participants also made donations by trying to \u201cout dink\u201d our Chattanooga elves-Dianne and Mike Pendergrass. Because of the eye\/hand co-ordination benefits of pickleball, plans are in the works to add a \u201cpickleball skills corner\u201d to the daily exercise regimen at our local Rock Steady gym.<\/p>\n<p>Tournament Directors &#8211; SSIPA members &#8211; Cheryl (Sherry) Barnes and Patricia McInnis<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pickleball-huntsville.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SSIPA_Newsletter_2018-01-06.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-425\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pickleball-huntsville.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SSIPA_Newsletter_2018-01-06-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickleball-huntsville.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SSIPA_Newsletter_2018-01-06-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickleball-huntsville.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SSIPA_Newsletter_2018-01-06.jpg 582w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to all who assisted, played and participated as spectators in the Pickleball Charity tournament.
