HARRISBURG, Pa. - HACC, Central Pennsylvania’s Community College, recently partnered with 717 Pickleball to host the 2026 HACC Pickleball Tournament to support the HACC Foundation and its mission to help HACC students succeed.

The tournament brought together 113 players who competed in 68 men’s and women’s doubles teams, with 19 of those players also participating in the singles event in divisions based on age and skill level. The tournament brought together pickleball players, spectators and community members for four days of competition and camaraderie while raising funds that will provide resources and opportunities for HACC students.

Thanks to the generosity of tournament participants, sponsors and supporters, the event raised $5,311 for the HACC Foundation. The funds will support HACC students and help them achieve their goals by providing scholarships and financial assistance to help remove financial barriers to education.
