This weekend, pickleball enthusiasts are gearing up for a tournament that’s about more than just competition—it’s a heartfelt struggle for children’s emotional wellness. Hosted by Logan’s Little Warriors at Cosumnes River College, this event promises exhilarating matches while furthering a noble cause: equipping kids with the essential life skills they often miss out on.
Kerrie Hill, the founder of Logan’s Little Warriors, started the nonprofit organization after a tragic loss—her son Logan fell victim to an accidental fentanyl overdose. In his memory, she has channeled her grief into empowering the next generation. Through this tournament, competitors will have a blast on the court while also contributing to the mission of fostering resilience and coping strategies in kids.
Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, there’s something exciting in store. With matches set to run through Saturday and Sunday, and vendors in tow, this event not only raises funds but strengthens community ties. Come out, swing those paddles, and rally for a cause that truly matters!
