Now in its 3rd year, this fun and festive event has sold out every time and we are thrilled to be bringing it back! 

This tournament is for both pickleball enthusiasts and beginners alike.

We will host women’s, men’s, and mixed doubles, with divisions for both beginner, intermediate and advanced skill levels.

A “recommended” beginners clinic will be available for players the evening of Thursday, April 17th from 6:00-7:30 PM for those that wish to attend.

Please email melissa@rutledgecancerfoundation.org for more information or to register for the clinic.

And if you don’t want to play, we have other ways to support our cause including sponsorship opportunities, raffle donations, making an online donation or just coming to spectate and enjoy the food and drinks!

There are nearly 90,000 Adolescents and Young Adults (AYA’s – ages 15-39) diagnosed with cancer in the United States each year.

Approximately 500 are diagnosed in and around the DFW area.

That’s 8 times the number of pediatric patients.

Unlike children, however, there has been a limited focus on the AYA population.

Since 2011…

RCF has partnered with 16 medical centers and served over 17,000 young cancer patients and their families.

We recently added 2 centers in Denver, Colorado.

In 2024, we distributed over 1,600 care packages through Carley’s Closet.

We’ve helped over 350 patients preserve their fertility, protecting their future family-building options.

RCF has mobilized over $1.9 million in research funds, supporting innovative treatments with less toxicity.
