The Fallbrook Tennis and Pickleball Club hosted the Happycikleball New Year doubles tournament Jan. 28 and attracted 192 players.

“That’s about as much as we could do. We have 16 courts,” said tournament organizer Rex Neilson.

That allowed for 64 players in each of three sessions without having to utilize the lights. The tournament had men’s, women’s, and mixed competition at the 4.5/4.0, 3.5, and 3.0 levels.

“There were people from all over,” Neilson said. “We had one from Santa Barbara.”
