Sports Illustrated Dink it Over: "National Mall of Pickleball to Return For Second Straight Year"
“The Trust for the National Mall, Humana, and the Humana Foundation are teaming up to bring back the National Mall of Pickleball, which premiered last year. The theme for this year's event is "One of the Ages," and the event will search for the "ultimate duo" which must feature two players of different generations.”
"We are thrilled to host the second annual National Mall of Pickleball and once again welcome thousands of picklers and fans to the National Mall. We are grateful to our committed and innovative partners at Humana who, though the National Mall of Pickelball are bringing the game for everyone to the place for everyone," said Catherine Townsend, President and CEO of the Trust for the National Mall. "There's no better way and no better place to celebrate pickleball and the importance of connection across generations than the National Mall. We welcome all to come experience this unique event and find out ways to give back to support our work to restore, preserve, and enrich this treasured American space for generations to come."
