MVP Athletic Club, Crahen

MVP Crahen has partnered with Grace's Table – a Grand Rapids nonprofit focused on supporting pregnant and parenting young mothers, generally ages 13–24, and their children. Their mission is to walk alongside teen moms as they move from isolation to community and help them reach their full potential.

Bring a donation to MVP Crahen to receive a guest pass. The organization is collecting things like personal hygiene products, diapers, and wipes. We will be accepting donations through August 21st.

Meet Mitch Balingit, Pickleball Pro at MVP Crahen! Mitch comes to MVP with 5+ years of coaching experience with both adults and youth.

Mitch will teach our new monthly free class for non-All Star members (keep an eye out for more info!) and is also now accepting new clients.
