We called ourselves The Golden Warriors. Over a span of six weeks, each team played 36 games to determine who would play in the final. By earning the most points, The Golden Warriors were top seed for the final and played the second seed, Most Valuable Picklers. In the final, The Golden Warriors and Most Valuable Picklers battled it out over six games. The Golden Warriors reigned as champion by a mere five points. Great job to our Team Captain Julie, Co-Captain Frenchie, and to Carolyn, Talia, Kelly, Ron, Will, and Bryan. Everyone had a great time playing the game we love and meeting new wonderful people. We're looking forward to more tournament opportunities in the future. Smashing Picklers SCCA HORSESHOE CLUB LOOKING FOR PLAYERS … whether you have ever played before. Have you ever bowled?
