First Tourney of the season
Winter Bash – January 4th at Smash Courts
This about sums it up from one of our players:
“The PPA Winter Bash 2026 was one for the books! ❄️🔥
There’s nothing quite like the atmosphere at Smash Courts. Today felt less like a club event and more like a massive family get-together. Everywhere I looked: smiles, high-fives, and great vibes.
So proud to be a member of this amazing association. Until the next one!” 🥒🎾
