The oh-so-popular game of pickleball is coming to Bidwell Parkway. On Sunday, October 23, community members are invited to attend Buffalo Seminary’s annual pickleball tournament, in a spectator capacity or as participants. This fun, family-friendly fall outing is the perfect way to get some exercise, while playing pickleball on a surface that is normally dedicated to cars.
It turns out that Bidwell Parkway is the perfect place for setting up the courts. A simple street closure, and voilà!. Players play on the street, and people observe from the grassy parkway.
The all-ages event includes Buffalo Seminary students, alumnae, parents, faculty staff, and community pickleball players.
Anyone interested in playing in the tournament (12pm-4pm) can register here. The $40 registration includes a complimentary t-shirt, refreshments, and other giveaways. The money raised on that day will go towards SEM’s annual fund.
For convenience, players can either choose their team, or be assigned to a team.
