Unfortunately for the Men’s Advanced Doubles, the rains came after only completing the first game of the round robin play. A real tragedy as unlike Arnie, I won’t be able to say, “I’ll be back” to try and schedule another tournament of this magnitude (schedule is full and this is my final season running these games).
Thanks to all the teams and the fans for showing up and my volunteers Fred Veenstra and Miriam Bernstein for assisting.
