The Pickle Bar, a local pickleball entertainment venue, this week announced a partnership with Pickleball Charleston, the Lowcountry’s leading pickleball tournament operator. This collaboration cements Pickleball Charleston as the exclusive tournament operator at The Pickle Bar. In turn, The Pickle Bar will be the exclusive food provider and preferred host venue for Pickleball Charleston events.
The two parties will also work together to create a pickleball tournament, “Pickle Bar Masters,” showcasing top-tier talent from around the country. It will be a national qualifier for all genders/all levels and include a total purse valued at a minimum of $10,000.
“Our partnership with Pickleball Charleston aligns perfectly with our mission to provide outstanding experiences both on and off the court,” said Pat Duncan, Founder of The Pickle Bar. “Together, we’re excited to inspire more people to discover the joy of pickleball while enjoying the best food, drinks and entertainment Charleston and Summerville has to offer.”
