SFES - Suffield Foundation for Excellent Schools

Fun - New Friends - and more! SFES Classic 2025 is in the books, and our inaugural year was chock full of amazing memories. Congratulations to our year #1 champions - in Intermediate, it was the Catamounts, and in Advanced, we crowned the Slinging D***s (Men's) and Dink-182 (Women's/Co-Ed) as champs. Thanks to our title sponsor, Windsor Federal Bank, also to Suffield Pickleball for hosting us, and to our court sponsors Resilience Physical Therapy, BrightstarCare, XGT Fitness, Spa 1670 and DG Graphics. Enjoy the pics! , , ,

SFES, the Suffield Foundation for Excellent Schools, is looking for prizes for a Raffle at our SFES Classic Indoor Pickleball tournament (see sfes.org). If you would like to donate an item for Raffle or Auction, email [email protected].

We do have quite the selection now, but this is our spotlight fundraiser for this school year, and our primary chance to add funds available for Grants back to all four public schools in Suffield. We want to highlight our area businesses and towns people. Please, no used merchandise.

At your discretion and if we can add this to our raffle per our foundation's guidelines, we will recognize the donating company and some additional information like website and physical address.

SFES is a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Organization (Tax ID 22-2789394). Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Exact configuration of the divisions will be set after we see how many people sign up. Teams of just men, just women and Coed, broken down by skill level, will compete.
There will be food trucks there where attendees can purchase their own meals and snacks. We also hope to have a Raffle and 50/50 drawing.
