The Edward Jones Rally In The Valley (our 8th Annual Rally) was held August 6-8, 2021 at our NEW Albany/LBCC Pickleball Courts.
What a fabulous weekend – brand new pickleball courts, great weather, but connecting (and reconnecting) with pickleball players was the best!
Thank you for playing in, volunteering and supporting the Edward Jones Rally In The Valley and supporting the Albany Pickleball Club.
Our new courts opened officially less than a week prior to the tournament. What a relief!!!

Volunteers:
You probably saw them out there during the tournament making everything in the facility work on the courts, around the courts and in the tents. What you didn’t see was all the hours they put in prior to the tournament. These are the unheralded folks that are our heroes!
Tournament Director:
We were glad to have Kathy Rambousek from Pickleball Is Great as our tournament director. She kept play on time, and superbly organized. I don’t know what we would have done without her!
