Owala ‘25 College Tour arrives at UNL on Tuesday, Sept 30


Get ready to get your pickleball on, Cornhuskers, because Owala is set to serve up a high-energy, anything-but-boring pickleball event right in your backyard.

Look out for their takeover of the Vine Street Tennis Courts from 3 to 7 p.m. September 30, 2025 where the only thing you need to be good at is having a great time.

The Owala ‘25 College Tour pickleball court is open to all skill levels, whether you’ve never picked up a paddle or you’re a pro who knows a proper dink shot. Yes, 'dink' is a term used in pickleball.

Register now to play.

Don’t worry if you don’t know all the rules—on this court, they’re more like suggestions.

The day will consist of fast-paced 4-on-4 matches where the first team to 5 points snags the win and earns eternal bragging rights. Players will rotate positions with every point, so each player has a chance to show spectators what they’re made of.

Will you sweat? Absolutely. Make sure to stay hydrated and visit the iconic Owala van, which will be fully stocked with the latest bottles. Plus, enjoy free engraving on any product you purchase, making it uniquely yours.

Don’t feel like playing, but still want to hang? Sounds good to us. This is a party, after all, and more than just pickleball. Expect music that slaps, delicious snacks, and a special skills zone designed for feed-worthy, main character moments.

Got a perfect serve? Want to show off your fancy footwork? Just love Owala? This is your moment.

Secure your spot. Register now to play or sign up on the day of the event for any remaining spots.
