2026 PickleGames

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the SoFloNOMA Pickle Games for an impactful morning of fun, competition, and community. From first serves to championship points, the energy on and off the court was incredible.

Your support helps us continue building community and funding scholarships for the next generation of architects and designers.

We appreciate everyone who played, volunteered, and showed up to support SoFloNOMA.

Here’s a look at the 2026 fun!

ABOUT THE 2026 PICKLEGAMES:

Imagine this:

A sunny day, a lively pickleball court, and the exhilarating thrill of knowing you’re making dreams come true.

Your sponsorship isn’t just about pickleball—it’s about giving wings to the next generation of visionaries. By backing this event, you’re not just having a little fun; you’re crafting a legacy.

So, grab your paddle, join the excitement, and let’s build something amazing together. Because when you sponsor this tournament, you’re not just playing a game—you’re shaping the future.

This is for the game changers.

The National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB) reports 30% of recent graduates are from an underrepresented racial or ethnic group. However, the profession loses this talent through career “pinch points,” resulting in less than 13% Architect members of the AIA identifying as part of an underrepresented group. NOMA’s goal is to broaden the pipeline to increase minority retention in schools and in turn in the profession.

Each year, NOMA National hosts the annual NOMA Conference which brings thousands of members together to learn, network, and grow. Students are invited and encouraged to attend the conference and  participate in a Barbara G. Laurie Student Design Competition that can help their chapter for future growth; however, the expenses are usually too great.

This year, we are hosting our annual Pickle Games to raise money for members of all four of our local universities to attend the NOMA Conference and be able to participate in the Barbara G. Laurie Student Design Competition. 100% of all proceeds will be going to support students.
