Friday, March 28

Come by yourself or bring a date, a friend, or a group of friends, and enjoy mingling and meeting others at Huskies Night Out!
 

Whether you're a novice, a paddle master or a big dill in the kitchen, join us at the Holmes Student Center on Friday, March 28, as the Ellington Ballroom is transformed into pickleball courts! Learn the ins and outs of one of the fastest-growing sports in the country from Jenn Jacobs, Ph.D., professor in NIU's Department of Kinesiology and Physical Education.
 

Following a few lively games of pickleball, head over to Ellington’s Restaurant for a delicious plated dinner and a complimentary glass of wine or beer. Individual tickets are $30 per person, but a special rate of $55 is set for Double Huskies (alumni couples), so make your plans today! 
 

Jacobs is a college professor, researcher, multi-sport athlete and pickleball instructor. Having found pickleball in 2020, she has since won several gold and silver medals in mixed doubles, women’s doubles, and singles events at the 4.5 and 5.0 levels. Jacobs holds a Ph.D. in sports psychology and finds her expertise in mental skills training a strong asset within the game.
