Winners, Winners, Chicken Dinners

A couple tournaments happened recently and EPC members brought home the glory!

Polar Pickle Palooza

February 1st was the Polar Pickle Palooza, a fundraiser for the Evergreen Lacrosse Team. Overall Second Place Champions were our own Grant Kalbfleisch and Ted Simms. Pool 3 Champions were Corrinne Jackson and Julie Ann Courim. Nancy Hughes also represented - her glory-level unknown but cute skirt game on point.

Grant smashes a ball back or is about to take one in the nose.

The concentration of a champion.

Champions Cup 3

The Denver Pickleball Club had it’s Champions Cup 3 Jan 30 - Feb 1st. While slightly more prestigious than Polar Palooza, it has a complete lack of blow-up characters. Gig Blitz and partner Lindsey Davis took home Gold in the Women’s 3.5 - 4.0, 50+ division. Susan Dickenson and Patrick Bixenman won Silver in the mixed doubles 3.0 to 3.5, 50+ division while Gig Blitz and Jeff Dickenson took home Gold in the 3.5 - 4.0, 50+ division. Congratulations!
