CAMH Engage’s Paddles for Progress

CAMH Engage’s Paddles for Progress returns for its third year on Saturday, June 20, and this one is set to be the biggest yet. Join the community at the Fairgrounds Racket Club in Leaside for a full day of play, now featuring both Pickleball and Padel tournaments.

Play for a Cause In support of the CAMH Foundation, the event brings together sport, community, and a shared commitment to mental health. Since launching in 2024, Paddles for Progress has raised over $111K for CAMH, with 100% of proceeds donated directly to support mental health research and care. Whether you’re playing, cheering, or just coming for the atmosphere, it’s a great way to spend a Saturday while supporting better access to mental health care.

Tournament and Social The tournament takes place at the Fairgrounds Public Racket Club (849 Eglinton Ave E) from 9:30 am to 3:30 pm. Throughout the day, guests can expect bites from local vendors and a silent auction. After the tournaments wrap, the crowd continues to The Porch Toronto (250 Adelaide St W) for a social event that brings players, supporters, and volunteers together. Access to the social is available as an add-on ticket. It’s the perfect way to unwind after a day on the courts.
