Shufflers Defeat Hot Shots

After a break for the holidays and a postponement of the week 6 game, the Shuffleboard League continued on Jan. 7, when the Shufflers defeated the Hot Shots 11-7 on the Clubhouse 1 courts. The Shufflers’ all-game winners were Sal LaScala and Red Ryals, and for the Hot Shots, it was Chandra Patel. The Shufflers are now in first place, with Hot Shots in second and the Sliders third.

Shuffleboard is a low-impact sport that is fun and easy to learn. Practice times are Mondays and Wednesdays at 9 a.m. The starting time for league play is 8:30 a.m. on Fridays; the club advises players to arrive on time to get a starting position. To use the Shuffleboard Courts, all players must first be trained in court setup, maintenance and play, then become a participating club member.

BYOB practice nights, tournaments and other social events are being planned for Shuffleboard members and their guests. The anticipated Valentine’s Party has been canceled because of the COVID mandates. The next event, a St. Patrick’s Day party, is currently scheduled for on or about March 22. Those interested in attending should check with their team captains or club President Carrie Kistner for details.

Anyone with questions about joining the club should contact Dave LaCascia at (801) 674-5975.
