The YMCA of the Northwoods and the Rhinelander High School boys’ and girls’ tennis teams co-hosted the Clash of the Paddles indoor pickleball tournament at the Hodag Dome March 23 and 24. Scores of individuals took part in the event which featured men’s, women’s and mixed doubles play. 

“Thank you to all sponsors and donors, the Hodag Dome for hosting, for everyone who came out to play and support, and for the team members who volunteered to help make this fundraiser a huge success,” the Hodag Tennis teams said on their Facebook page following the event.
