🌟 The Week's Headliner
US Open Pickleball Championships Begin This Saturday
Saturday, April 11 through Saturday, April 18 | East Naples Community Park
Naples becomes the center of the pickleball world this weekend. The US Open is back for its 10th edition, bringing thousands of players, huge crowds, and the kind of energy that turns East Naples into a full-on event zone.
Even if you never touch a paddle, this is still worth knowing about. General admission is free, parking runs about $10, and the people-watching alone is elite. If you do play, this is your chance to see the best in the world up close.
👉 Watch for our expanded pickleball guide as this event gets rolling.
