Swing a Paddle, Build a Home!

Grab your paddle—no partner required—and get ready for a tournament that turns every serve into lasting change. Pickleball for a Purpose invites players of every skill level to rally together at Toon Town Pickleball and help S3 Ministries raise the final $50,000 to purchase land in Las Salinas, Nicaragua. Once the land is secured, we’ll break ground on 12 safe, $10,000 homes for women and children who desperately need shelter, sustainability, and the hope of Christ.

How It Works

  • Blind-Draw Format
    When you arrive, you’ll be randomly paired with another player. It’s the perfect way to meet new friends and keep the matches fresh.
  • Choose Your Skill Level
    Select Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced at registration so we can balance play and keep every rally fun and competitive.
  • Round-Robin Play
    Each team faces multiple opponents, ensuring plenty of court time whether you’re brand-new or a seasoned slammer.

Why We’re Playing

  • $50,000 Land Pay-Off
    Your entry fee and on-site donations help close out our land purchase, the crucial first step toward building a safe community hub near Iglesia El Camino Popoyo.
  • 12 Homes, 12 Families, Infinite Hope
    Every $10,000 raised after the land is paid off funds a durable, cinder-block house complete with a garden plot, clean-water system, and Christ-centered community support.
