Pictona Open by Emerge Insurance Services

 

Many areas of the state were heavily impacted by Hurricane Helene, including many of the players who planned on playing in our signature Fall tournament. With that in mind, we have decided to postpone our flagship tournament, the Pictona Open, that was scheduled for Sept. 26-29.

With over 900 players registered, this is our largest event of the fall tournament season. After evaluating the calendar and numerous other scheduled events, we have made the decision to move the Pictona Open to the weekend of October 24-27. Unfortunately, this directly impacted the Generations Tournament causing us to cancel that tournament.

While we hate to ever cancel an event, we felt this decision was the best for all parties involved. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience, as we were excited to try this new Generations format here at Pictona.   

If you are interested in participating in the Pictona Open that same weekend, please note that we will be reopening registration for that event and would be happy to have you participate with us. We realize the format is slightly different than the Generations Tournament, but we would be thrilled if you were willing to join us for our signature event, the Pictona Open by Emerge Insurance Services.

Please email bobp@pictona.org to confirm your status of playing in the tournament or to coordinate the registration of a replacement player for the new dates – October 24-27.


5th Annual Pictona Open by Emerge Insurance Services


Join us to participate in Pictona’s annual fall tournament on October 24-27, 2024.  We're excited to announce our new title sponsor for the Pictona Open, Emerge Insurance Services!  Close the gap on accidental injuries with Emerge Insurance Services.

You’ll appreciate playing in a round robin format capped with a playoff. In our round robin played on a pod of courts, there is minimal wait time between games. Earn your way to the championship finals which are played in the MetroHealth Stadium for a memorable experience.

Women’s doubles, men’s doubles, mixed doubles, and singles will be available.
We offer five skill levels, from 3.0 to 5.0, and 9 age groups (<30, 30+, 40+, 50+, 55+, 60+, 65+, 70+, 75+). Join us for the entire tournament.

We were flattered to be called the “best pickleball facility in the world” after USAP held its Diamond Amateur Championship at Pictona, followed by the APP, PPA, and Major League Pickleball hosting their tournaments at Pictona. We’ll seek to match that by providing you with exceptional service provided by our staff and member volunteers.
