How to Peer-to-Peer fundraise for Pickleball for a Purpose 2026!

Step 1: Create or join an existing fundraising team by clicking the "Join a Team" or "Fundraise" button! By joining a fundraising team (or forming your own) and paying the registration fee, you've taken the first steps towards your team's fundraising goal!

Step 2: Register yourself in the tournament or bundle and register your team by clicking "Registration." During your registration process, you will be able to designate your match team to a fundraising team.

Note: While only two players can be on a pickleball match team, a match team can join a larger fundraising team that consists of multiple pickleball players. For example, Phene & Brittany are a match team in the tournament and have joined a fundraising team called the Pickleball Pickles. They recruit another match team to play in the tournament that joins the Pickleball Pickles' fundraising efforts. All four players can fundraise together as the Pickleball Pickles while playing as separate match teams in the tournament.

Step 3: Share your fundraising campaign and invite friends and family through social media, e-mail, text, or word-of-mouth to raise funds for Raising Resilience Tennessee!
