🏓🥒We want to take a moment to celebrate the success of our inaugural 2026 Rally for Right Steps Pickleball Tournament presented by Subaru of Indiana Automotive, Inc. (SIA)!

We welcomed 44 players from three states, and we’re incredibly grateful for the enthusiasm, sportsmanship, and energy everyone brought as we launched our very first event of this kind. What an amazing way to kick off a new tradition!

A huge thank you to our sponsors, players, volunteers, and supporters who made this event possible. Your support goes far beyond the court—every dollar raised helps advance our mission to provide and advocate for quality child care and early education.

It starts here.

In our Early Childhood apprenticeship pathway, students begin building the skills needed to work with young children in real-world care and learning environments.

From understanding child development to creating safe, engaging spaces for early learners, students gain experience that goes beyond the classroom.

This pathway can lead to industry credentials, including the Child Development Associate (CDA), and opens the door to careers in early childhood settings.

We are ready to pickle tomorrow! Come on out and enjoy the fun at the 2026 Rally for Right Steps Pickleball Tournament presented by Subaru Indiana Automotive!

You’ll have the opportunity to get in on the D**K OR SINK COMPETITION, where you’ll play for three amazing prizes, or the LAST CHANCE RALLY, in case you missed the registration deadline.

This event is meant to be fun, accessible, and most importantly, support our mission to provide and advocate for quality child care and early education!

If you didn't register for the main event at 2026 Rally for Right Steps Pickleball Tournament, no worries!
