Lethbridge to host Pickle Ball tournament
A new sporting event will be held in Lethbridge from May 2nd to 4th. It is the pickleball tournament organized by the Lethbridge & District Exhibition, along with the Lethbridge and Coaldale Pickleball Clubs. Paul Kingsmith, Director of Community Engagement at Lethbridge & District Exhibition, says the event will boost sport in southern Alberta. He says the event will be held at the Agri-Food Hub & Trade Centre. Kingsmith explains the importance of having a venue in Lethbridge which can host an event of this kind.
The tournament will feature men’s and women’s singles and doubles matches as well as junior boys and girls categories. It’s a Tier 4 Pickleball Canada sanctioned event and will even include referees for all medal matches.
