The Canadian Pickleball Series, which launched in early February with a meet in Toronto, will not be taking to the court this weekend in Burnaby as originally planned.
The scheduled Burnaby Cup four-day event has been shelved due to the COVID-19 epidemic, which has seen the closure of community centres and stoppage of all organized sporting events.
An email from a director with the event confirmed the pickleball tournament has been postponed, with plans to be announced at a later date.
The stop in Burnaby was to be part of a nation-wide series, hosted by Fortius Sport and Health, with a $10,000 prize pool.
