Sponsorship
Strengthening Your Community Through Sport
Hello. I am Jenn Selchow and I have been actively involved in Rockford's pickleball community since 2009. I am the tournament director for the upcoming Rally In The Rock on Saturday, April 1, 2023 at the Midwest's premier pickleball facility, UW Health Sports Factory in Rockford, IL.
Tournaments are an important part of pickleball culture. They provide opportunities for players to test their skills, it builds a player's confidence, and creates healthy communities through exercise and networking. Tournaments creates a chosen family among players.
I am expecting 96 players and approximately 250 spectators for this event. Please consider sponsoring the Rally In The Rock tournament to help build our community.
Thank you,
Jenn Selchow
Rockford Pickleball, Owner
