Thanks to everyone who played in our first outdoor VA tourney at Stratton Woods Park, especially those who travelled from PA and MD. We were supposed to have a one-day event but since the weather was iffy for Saturday afternoon, we decided to start Friday at 6p and everyone except 5 players (who were unable to play) were in attendance and we managed to get a lot of good games on all 7 courts (four 3wall/three 1wall).

The weather was great on Saturday so we started play around 9a(ish) and stopped around 12:15p so everyone could eat some awesome lunch from Mission BBQ, wish our girls (Abril Prado & Veronica Nogales) a happy birthday and take a group pic. And then the real fun began because, thanks to Andy’s great idea, we added a Paddleball division with 10 teams, and it was a success! Will definitely add this division to all future events…brought back a lot of great memories from my days back in NY.

All-in-all everyone had fun with lots of play time, plenty of food/snacks/drinks and the weather held out until the last of us left around 8p. Thanks to all of our sponsors (AGE Solutions, Formula Flow, Splathead, Gearbox, Nurse Sharon McNeill & Mikki Cottet) and especially Aime Brewer and Mike Spiro for all your help!  Lastly, thanks to your tournament directors for the event Maddie Melendez and Thao Le for running this great event and for doing this great write-up.
