Tennis and pickleball players from Sun Lakes and neighboring communities should mark their calendars for Saturday, April 1, for this year’s Play It Forward fun event.

Planned for IronOaks Racquet Club, the event will offer one hour of play for $20 and lunch. Players may sign up from Feb. 19 through March 24 in the lobby of IronOaks Racquet Club. All sign-up sheets must be returned by 5 p.m. on March 24 to allow time for match-ups.

All pairings will be posted on March 29 at IronOaks Racquet Club and on ironoakstennis.net and ironoakspickleball.com.

Advance check-in and payment are also available on the IronOaks patio two days prior to the event.

Those who wish to use credit cards may visit the Oakwood Tennis Club patio on Thursday, March 30, and Friday, March 31, from 8:30 a.m. to noon. Other payment methods, such as cash and check, also may be used.

Those who would like to make an Arizona Charitable Tax Credit Donation on behalf of the tournament may do so through the same payment methods. Neighbors Who Care’s QCO Tax Code is 22246 to receive the AZ Tax credit on your 2022 taxes or on next year’s 2023 taxes if you have already made your QCO donation for 2022.
