This is the 2nd year of the pickleball tournament.

The Around The Post Pickleball Tournament made it's return to the Capital Region this past weekend and had an amazing turn out. 250 pickleball players of all levels competed in one of the fastest growing sports in the Country.

Players from all over the region were at the Albany Capital Center to to play and test their skill level against some of the regions best players. 

This is actually the 2nd year that the Around The Post Tournament was held at the ACC. Judging by the turnout for this event, I can't imagine that the tournament will not be back next year as well.

If you're interested in learning to play pickleball, the Albany Capital Center does host free clinics that teach the sport. Those clinics are available for all levels of pickleball players.
