MORE THAN A MEDAL

A year-long pickleball series where Middle Georgia plays with purpose.

The Rally for Good Tournament Series is the first of its kind.

A year-long pickleball tournament series designed to bring people together around something bigger than the game. Across six tournaments throughout the year, players, clubs, and nonprofits unite to raise funds and awareness for causes that matter and make a difference in our community.

Each event supports a different Middle Georgia nonprofit, blending friendly competition with community impact. Players still chase medals and club pride, but the real win is the difference we make together.

This is where
we live, work, and play. 

Rally for Good is focused on making a real difference right here at home.

Pickleball tournaments in Macon began as a way to give back. Our first, Home Court with Habitat for Humanity, showed us the power of combining play with purpose. Over time, tournaments everywhere became more about competition than community. Rally for Good brings the two back together, reminding us that we can play hard and give back

HOW THE SERIES WORKS

Join a Team

Choose the pickleball club or association you want to represent: Macon Pickleball, Warner Robins, or any club you call home. When you play, you’re part of something bigger than a single match. You’ll compete for your own medal while also earning points for your club. Leaderboards will track both medals and donations to show the impact each association is making throughout the year.

Play in Tournaments

Sign up for any of the six tournaments across the season. Your registration directly supports that event’s nonprofit partner, and you’ll have the option to add an extra donation at checkout. Play in one tournament or all six. Every match, medal, and dollar helps strengthen Middle Georgia.

Rally for your Club

Clubs earn points through competitive results and donations, building friendly rivalries and deepening community connections along the way. Whether you’re representing your home facility or rallying a group of friends under a new banner, every match moves your club up the leaderboard.

• Gold, silver, and bronze medals earn points
• Donations earn points for your club too
• Top-scoring club is crowned at the end of the season
