Rally for Rescue: Pickleball Tournament Returns to Henderson
Pickleball Pawlooza Ruturns to Support Vegas Pet Rescue Project
Pickleball may be the fastest-growing sport in the country, but here in Las Vegas, it’s also becoming a powerful way to give back. On Sunday, October 5, 2025, the paddles come out at Chicken N’ Pickle in Henderson for the 2nd Annual Pickleball Tournament benefiting Vegas Pet Rescue Project (VPRP). From 2 PM to 5 PM, players, families, and animal lovers alike are invited to enjoy an afternoon of competition, community, and compassion.
More Than a Tournament
This isn’t just about serves and volleys — it’s about raising critical funds to support Vegas Pet Rescue Project’s lifesaving work. VPRP has been rescuing, fostering, and rehoming animals in the Las Vegas Valley for years, stepping in to provide medical care, shelter, and second chances for pets in need. Fundraisers like this one keep those efforts possible, making every rally and raffle ticket part of a bigger mission.
What’s on the Court
The tournament promises friendly competition and plenty of fun, whether you’re an experienced player or just picking up a paddle for the first time. Highlights of the day include:
- Pickleball tournament play, welcoming all skill levels
- Delicious food and refreshing drinks from Chicken N’ Pickle
- Raffles with exciting prizes
- Local vendor booths to shop and explore
- Adoptable pets on site, ready to meet their future families
It’s the perfect blend of fitness and philanthropy, where you can work up a sweat and support a cause that directly impacts animals across Southern Nevada.
