Club Singles Reminder

Written by Robbie Thomas on . Posted in Need to Know, Upcoming Competitions.

We are Short on Men Participants

This is a reminder of the club singles being played on August 12-14.  The registration for this tournament closes on August 5.

At this time, I need 3 more men to participate so that all who have signed up will be able to play.  If you are playing in the novice or intermediate singles you may still play in the singles on August 12-14.

Sandi Mitchell, coordinator for the club singles
