Don't forget the tournament at the Greater Glenville YMCA on Feb. 26, 27, and 28, 2010. Here's the deal: There will be a separate Novice tournament on Fri. night. (26th). After much discussion, the following seemingly vague definition of "Novice" will apply:
Novices are "players who are more comfortable playing in that classification (rather than the Open tournament) AND who have NOT won 1st PLACE in any previous tournament." In other words - NO RINGERS!!
Tournament applications will be available after the first of the year via the weekly emails and at our website. Everyone must submit an appilcation AND the registration fee ($25 to play on one event plus $5 more for multiple events.) If you don't include the fee, your application will NOT be processed.
GAVIN PARK The Indoor Gym at Gavin Park in Wilton is an outstanding Pickleball venue. The Park is open on Tuesday and Thursday's from 9 – 11 am and players pay just $2 to play. Currently there are two courts available, however due to the popularity of the site, there are plans to add a third. The gym floor is a state-of-the-art plasticine rubberized floor offering an excellent playing surface. Below, organizer Bill Johnson stands among the players' paddles as they are lined up waiting for their turn to play.  PROMOTE YOUR PLAYING SITE We would like to feature eachv one of our playing sites in the coming weeks, however we need you to provide us with the information since our reporting staff is on a permanent holiday. Please send information about, the number of courts available for play the average number of players each night the level of play any photos and any other info that may be available about the site.
