Thank you for your interest in becoming an event sponsor for the Rotary Memorial Pickleball Classic.

Each year, the Albemarle County Rotary Club organizes an annual fundraising event to provide college scholarships to local students and support exceptional nonprofits. In the past, our efforts have raised over $25,000 to further these important initiatives.

This year, we’re excited to host a Pickleball Classic.  Pickleball, the fastest growing sport in America, and this event will bring together players of all ages and skill levels for a day of fun and friendly competition.

Event Details:

  • Date: May 24, 2025
  • Location: Greencroft Club, 575 Rodes Drive, Charlottesville, Va 22903
  • Format: Round-Robin, One Session 9:00 AM (Check in at 8:30am)

Our 2025 lead beneficiary is All Blessings Flow, an organization committed to promote health equity by collecting and refurbishing healthcare items and providing them to those in need in the Greater Charlottesville area. For underserved families, obtaining the healthcare items they need can be life-changing. The Kids Pediatric Program through ABF helps families access medical services for their child’s unique healthcare needs. The program collaborates closely with the hospital, Blue Ridge Care Connection for Children, pediatricians, and other pediatric healthcare professionals. Working together, ABF assesses children with all types of disabilities and provides adaptive resources that precisely fit their special needs. They offer training in the safe and proper use of the equipment and provide counseling to address questions and support parents who often feel stressed and overwhelmed.
