Two days of competitive pickleball at the DoubleTree Hotel, Rohnert Park — raising money for Positive Images, Sonoma County's LGBTQIA+ community center. Show up. Play hard. Give back.
*Minus required court fees
MLP format is a mixed gender team format — each team has two men and two women competing together. It's fast, social, and nothing like a standard tournament. Here's how a match works:
Each session is its own independent event. Individual DUPR ratings only — no combined scores. Justin builds the teams. No partner needed.

Positive Images is Sonoma County's LGBTQIA+ Community and Resource Center, founded in 1990. For over 35 years they've been a lifeline for LGBTQIA+ youth and adults across the North Bay — with emphasis on those at the margins: trans and nonbinary individuals, LGBTQIA+ people of color, Latine families, and neurodivergent people.
They run support groups, a therapy fund for people who can't afford mental health care, a leadership development program for young people, and community social events — all rooted in the belief that every LGBTQIA+ person deserves to thrive.
"I would not be the person that I am today. Positive Images jumpstarted my life and I have been flourishing ever since."— Positive Images community member
