Smashing Stigma 2025: Pickleball for Men’s Mental Health

Event Details

Benefiting the Face It Foundation: “Leveraging the power of peer support, Face It works with men to recover from depression and prevent suicide.”

Join us for a powerful evening of pickleball, connection, and conversation—hosted by the Face It Foundation, a nonprofit helping men tackle depression and other mental health and life challenges.

This isn’t a tournament—but it is a fun, high-energy event open to all skill levels. Whether you’re a seasoned player or just getting started, we’ll have:

Coaching from the pros
Open play throughout the evening
Inspiring guest speakers sharing their mental health journeys
Food, music & raffle prizes
A chance to learn more about Face It and our work with men across Minnesota

Competitive players are welcome, but please know: this night is as much about men’s mental health as it is about pickleball.

Let’s smash stigma together!
