WHAT IS PICKLEBOLT?

A non-profit tournament company where community interaction and inclusion comes before charity earnings. A Friday coed moneyball followed by 2 days of men's, women's, and mixed doubles gives everyone a reason to sign up and play. 100% of profits go directly to the Central High School Tennis Program to support equipment, uniforms, travel, and facilities.

INCLUSIVE

From amateur (2.0-2.5) divisions to 4.5+, there's an opportunity for everyone to explore camaraderie in an empowering way.

COMPETITIVE

Win cash from the moneyball, medals from regular divisions, and raffle SWAG just from registering.

My Reason

"$700 Million in debt; that's the origin of Picklebolt. Facing severe budget cuts after COVID, Keller ISD cut funding to athletic programs across the district. One stood too close to heart: Tennis. As varsity captain, I understood playing with three-year-old tennis balls and limited personalized coaching set my team back as we pushed towards 6A regionals."

Who Am I?

"I'm a 17-year-old senior at Central High School who saw a vision to change something I've watched develop for nearly a decade. Being part of the tennis program through summer drills and my sibling, I've been alongside Central Tennis since 4th grade. Now, as a 4th-year varsity player and 2nd-year captain, I took it into my own hands to revolutionize our program and make a change that was once only a dream."
