Every ticket purchased helps fund NEC (Necrotizing Enterocolitis) research, raise awareness, and bring hope to families affected by this devastating condition. The Titus Strong Foundation was founded in 2024 after the founders' son, Titus, passed away from NEC, the leading cause of infant deaths in the United States. Their mission is to bring hope to families affected by NEC and work toward finding a cure for this devastating disease. Together, we can create a future where no family has to endure this struggle.

This tournament will be a doubles round robin tournament. *If you purchase a solo ticket, you will be placed with another solo ticket purchaser of the same skill level. If you are a team, please purchase your tickets together. 

There will be three different brackets. Beginner (3.0)/ Intermediate (3.5)/ Expert (4.0 and above).

Whether you're a seasoned player or new to the game, there’s a place for everyone at SMASH NEC. Don’t miss out on the fun, camaraderie, and chance to make an impact.
