Paddle for Paws: Charity Pickleball Tournaments with Puppies

Each team is assigned a shelter puppy as a mascot for the day. When you step onto our synthetic hard courts, the stakes change; every match you win earns tangible treats and meals for your specific puppy. It is an immediate way to see the impact of your play while you sweat it out.

Play Hard, Feed a Pup

Our Paddle for Paws tournaments are not your average weekend games. Whether you are a pro or a beginner, the format is simple: register in pairs, get your mascot, and win matches to stock up on treats for your puppy. The competition is friendly, but the goal is serious. We host these across India, utilizing professional-grade courts to ensure the sport is as good as the cause.

More Than Just a Match

Between sets, the event turns into a festival. Even if you are not actively playing, you can:

• Chill in the Puppy Cuddle Zone: Spend your rest breaks with 10-15 shelter dogs who are all looking for their forever homes.
• Master Puppy Pong: A carnival-style game where you win goodies for the pups.
• Unwind: Grab a discount at our venue cafe, get your face painted, or try your luck at the spin-the-wheel to win official Pawga merchandise.

Making a Real Difference

Every person who registers for a tournament, whether as a team of two or a solo player, contributes directly to the well-being of shelter animals. We are a social enterprise, so every ticket fee covers the event costs and pumps resources back into food and medical care for the animals we advocate for. If you fall in love with your team mascot on the court, adoption coordinators are right there to help you start the process. All the animals you see at our events are available for free adoption. Come ready to play, makkale (folks), and leave with a potential new best friend.
