"Adam's House has had very successful Paddle Tournaments for the past four years, but this year is the first time we've had separate men's and women's teams for competitive players," said Allison Wysota, Adam's House founder. "Our Paddle Tournaments always attract enthusiastic players and supporters who have a great time playing, plus enjoying dinner and drinks and the chance to win prizes."

Those who don't want to play in the tournament can come to the dinner, which starts at 5:30 p.m., for $50 per person. Visit the Adam's House website for more information and to register.

Sponsorships are still available, with gold level at $3,000; silver for $1,500; and bronze for $750. Sponsors will receive a package of tickets, signage and advertising. 

Proceeds from the event go to support Adam's House, a grief-support organization for Connecticut children and their families. Adam’s House, 241 Coram Ave., in Shelton, is part of the Adam Wysota Foundation, which honors the memory of Adam Wysota, a father, coach and volunteer.
