Forget awkward small talk over drinks. Dink & Date pairs you with a new pickleball partner every 10 minutes — quick, laid-back games that mean by the end of the night, you've actually met the room.

All skill levels welcome — truly. Never held a paddle? Perfect, neither has half the guest list. We'll divide players into two groups — beginners in one, experienced players in the other — so every game feels fun, never intimidating.

How the night works:
6:00 — Check in, warm up, grab a welcome drink and your name tag
6:30 — Rotating doubles: new partner, new court, every round
8:00 — The Matchmaker Moment: tell our professional matchmakers who caught your eye, and we make the introduction for you. Plus awards for Best Dink, Best Team Spirit, and Most Likely Meet-Cute 🏆

Hosted by The Matchmaking Collective — real matchmakers, not just event hosts.
