Exciting news for all PickleballChicks who love a RoadTrip with pickleball gal pals! This fall we’re on a 4 stop tour that will take us from Ontario to sunny Central Florida!
Our first stop is at the PickleballChicks Official Ontario Home; CORTEKW in Kitchener, Ontario. We’ll be revving our engines here with two Battle for the Crown tournaments, one in September and one in October.
Check out these great courts!
Then we load the car up and head SOUTH!
First US stop is Pittsburgh, PA and the absolutely stunning Pickleball Harbor. Check out these digs!
Then we hop back in the car for the long haul from Pittsburgh to Hilton Head Island, SC. If you haven’t been to Hilton Head, trust me girlfriend, the drive is worth it! We’ll be playing at the beautiful Palmetto Dunes Pickleball and Tennis Club and since it will be Halloween Day, I’m sure there will be extra shenanigans to be had!
Need a little nudge to meet us in Hilton Head? Check these snaps out:
And within a short bike ride on one of Hilton Heads famous bike paths? The beach with miles and miles of glorious sand for walking (and thinking about why some of your dinks went into the net!).
From Hilton Head Island we’ll hit i95 South through Georgia and across the Florida border with a mandatory stop for OJ and grapefruit juice at the first rest area. And of course, a “we made it to Florida again!” photo. Wwe take one every single time!
After the Florida OJ we’ll motor through the gorgeous backroads of Central Florida orange groves and horse farms toward our beloved winter home in The Villages, Florida.
And before we’re unpacked for a day, we’ll be on to the final stop of our Road Trip – stopping 15 minutes from Sumter Landing in Summerfield, Florida which is home to the impressive and inspiring courts at Oxford Downs (famous for Pickle and Poker!).
Check out the great courts and the HUGE Tiki Bar at Oxford Downs!
As a Welcome to Florida bonus, every Oxford Down PickleballChick tournament ticket comes with a $5 voucher for the fab Tiki Bar … a great way to wind down apres tournament!
And after Oxford Downs? We settle in to our winter home as snowbirds and enjoy The Villages, Florida. PickleballChicks will be hosting fabulous, fun weekly events at multiple court locations (hello Saddlebrook, Clarendon and Homestead, maybe Aviary!).
And with any luck? There will be a few mini road trips throughout the season when we take PickleballChicks on the road to Miami? Naples? St. Petes? Lauderdale? Have car. Will travel.
You’ll never forget the times you spend on the road.
Life is short, go on a PickleballChicks Road Trip!
