2015 Blind Date Social

Tuesday, January 13, 2014 9:30 AM to 2:00 PM at the Cottonwood courts.

*** ABORTED DUE TO RAIN ***

SLPC will brought 12 women and 12 men. SLPCIO had 8 women and 8 men. Social coordinators Bob Michael and Greg Mather will divided these players into Division 1 and Division 2 based on skill level. 10 women paired with 10 men to play in each division.

A blind random draw (pennies were involved) paired a woman and a man together to play in the social. A round robin format was set up each division. Games were to be to 11 points switching sides at 6, but had to be won by at least 2 points. Semi-final and final matches would be one game to 15.

Unfortunately, after the first few rounds of play, rain descended upon the courts. As the rain appeared to continue indefinitely, the event had to be called off. Everyone congregated in the Saguaro Room above the courts to feast on pizza, provided by the clubs. Coffee, tea and water were also available.

Hopefully, we will have better luck next year.
