Picklemania III

The North Shore Pickleball Club held a very successful one-day tournament on March 24, 2018. We had 78 entries in two separate formats: a rotating partner format, and a fixed partner format.

Thank you to all the volunteers who worked tirelessly to help make this third annual tournament a success: on the food side – Georgia Hunter, Ann Hale, Ann Westwood, Diane Brothers, and Pat Crawford; on the registration desk, scoring desk and marshalling – Linda McIntosh, Paulette Cloutier, Lorinda Rawlings, Ed Orlovsky, Estha Murenbeeld, Anis Kanji, Chris Minions, Ginny Minions, Gael Hannula, Patty Tougas; and, for assisting with set up / take down, Jo-Ann Elliott and Ivy Hung.

We also would like to thank the tournament director, Charles Neufeldt, and the NS Pickleball Club President, Linda Sullivan who supervised the day’s events.
