Event Highlights

This was a fabulous day with 68 games played by 24 participants. A great big thanks goes out to all players for their enthusiasm and cooperation throughout the whole event. Our volunteers for the day were: Debbie and Magi, who kept things in order and flowing smoothly on the floor; Agnes, who was our Photographer; and Allen, Christie-Anne, Derrick and Corinna, who helped out on door control and ball retrieval, etc. Allen also subbed in for one game. A great big thanks to you all.

​

The play-off games were outstanding! The two games were played to a score of fifteen (winning by two points or more) and were refereed by an amazing ref, Paul. The Bronze Medal match had Fred and Jill up against Brian and Catherine. It was a great battle with Fred and Jill coming out on top 15 to 7. Great job folks!

 

The final game was a very hard-fought battle with everyone giving their all. The final score was 16 to 14, with the Gold going to Frank and Leor, and the Silver going to Bruno and Jack – way to go guys!

​

We also crowned our “King and Queen of the Courts” for having earned the most points for a lady and a gentleman – the honours went to Jack and Kelly! Thank you to Jack, who donated two handmade wooden Aztec figures which were presented to Monique and Kirk who were recognised as having too much fun during the day. And thanks to Brian for providing everyone with delicious strawberry cheesecake!

 

The day wouldn't have been such a huge success without all the work put in by Brent, Logan and Paul, who did all the planning, organising and officiating. Thank you for your efforts to bring players together to have fun and keep the sport of Pickleball growing in Tantramar!
