WCC individual qualifiers rescheduled

Due to a last-minute scheduling conflict at Family Billiards, we were compelled to change the date of the West Coast Challenge individual qualifying tournaments.

NEW DATE: Saturday, August 10
TIME: 11:30 am warmup, 12 pm start

We apologize for the last-minute change and hope to see you there in a few weeks.

Election results

The following members were chosen to serve on the board for year-long terms:
– Skip Perry, President
– Yuko Takahashi, Secretary
– Joina Liao, Co-Head Referee
– Brendon Taing, Member at Large

Thanks for your board votes and nominations for the Jim Tingle sportsmanship award. The sportsmanship winner will be announced at the season-ending party.

Bernie King results

We had a field of 23 players for the Bernie King Memorial tournament at Family Billiards this afternoon. Thanks to multiple generous league members adding extra donations and a 1:1 corporate match, we raised $1200 for the Shanti Project.

Congratulations to the following players for their top four finishes:

1st – Modi Shantharam, Happy Diamond CueTTs
2nd – Jaime Dizon, Bus Stop Pick Me Up
3rd – Marcelo Aviles, Shot O’Clock at Route 101
4th – Steven Waldon, Smoke & Fizz

Election ballots out

Emails have been sent with this season’s ballot for board elections and sportsmanship award nominations. Please let a member of the board know if you did not receive the ballot and would like to vote.

On Sunday afternoon, we will be contesting the Bernie King Memorial at Family Billiards. Warmup starts at 11:30 and play begins at noon. This is a FargoRate handicapped event that raises funds for Shanti Project, a local nonprofit that focuses on building human connections to reduce isolation, enhance health and well-being, and improve quality of life.
