SoberSlam 2026: Two Days of Pickleball. One Community. Life-changing Impact.

  • June 7, 2026

SoberSlam Provided Release

Victoria, BC — Rewired Recovery Foundation, in partnership with Westshore Parks and Recreation, is proud to announce SoberSlam 2026 — a two-day charity pickleball tournament taking place July 18–19, 2026, hosted by Court Crushers. This exciting community event is more than a tournament; it’s a rallying cry for recovery, hope, and the power of showing up for one another.

A Tournament With a Purpose That Goes Beyond the Court

SoberSlam is the kickoff fundraiser for SoberFest 2026 — one of the region’s most impactful mental health and addictions recovery festivals. Since 2022, SoberFest has been a catalyst for real, lasting change: over 100 individuals have been sent directly to treatment as a result of this festival, representing more than $3 million in life-saving care. Every dollar raised through SoberSlam goes directly toward keeping that momentum alive.

The goal is clear: raise $20,000 to help cover tournament costs so that children can continue to attend SoberFest for free, and general admission tickets remain accessible at just $55. Because recovery shouldn’t have a price tag that keeps people out.

Get in the Game: SoberSlam Tournament Details

Hosted by the Court Crushers, SoberSlam is the perfect way to kick off your summer, sharpen your tournament game, and be part of something much bigger than a match. Players and spectators alike can expect:

  • Medals, door prizes, and auction prizes
  • Two days of competitive, fun-filled pickleball
  • A welcoming community atmosphere open to all skill levels
  • An unforgettable experience on and off the court

Whether you’re a seasoned competitor or picking up a paddle for the first time, SoberSlam is your chance to hone your skills, make new connections, and leave knowing you made a difference.

About Rewired Recovery Foundation

Rewired Recovery Foundation works alongside individuals, families, and the broader community to find real, lasting recovery solutions for those facing mental health challenges and addiction. Rewired believes deeply that healing is not a solo journey — it is a collective one. Every program, every event, and every partnership is built on that truth: it takes a community to heal.

Presenting Sponsors

SoberSlam 2026 is made possible through the generous support of:

  • Title Sponsor: Westshore Parks and Recreation
