Delco Dills’ Fiscal Sponsor

Founded by several members of the Delaware County community, Delco Dills Pickleball Club in Wallingford, Pennsylvania seeks to be a community-forward organization in an area underserved in the pickleball space. Liz Gallard and Kathy Dolphin are two of the founding members of Delco Dills and currently serve as board members for the club. They were eager to share their experience as a pickleball club working with a fiscal sponsor toward their goal of making the game more accessible for players of all skill and athletic abilities. Gallard is quick to note that while other states, and even areas not too far away such as the Jersey Shore, are writhe with pickleball courts and amenities, the Delaware County area is severely lacking in local resources.
