LEISURE WORLD POOL CLUB
One-to-one pool duels were played July 19 at the Leisure World Pool Club’s (LWPC) third annual Mano-A-Mano Tournament. Kurt Bourhenne, the overall winner, overcame five opponents. Bourhenne banked a difficult 8 ball shot to beat out second place winner Tom Zimmerman.
Sixteen players played singles in the tournament, working their way through the winners’ brackets or dropping down after a loss to the one-and-done bracket. Steve Edrich, LWPC club president, was the third place winner and Gary Snow was fourth, working his way up through the second chance bracket.
Leisure World residents who want to upgrade beginner pool skills or learn how to play are invited to attend a free basic pool skills workshop Saturday, July 29, at 1:30 p.m. in the Clubhouse 2 pool room. The hands-on workshop will be taught by LWPC “C” level players Connie Adkins and Eunis “WildFire!” Christensen, both LWPC officers.
Participants can be assured that instruction will not be too advanced. The workshop format will introduce attendees to beginner level eligibility requirements for playing in LWPC monthly tournaments and/or seasonal weekly league play.
To RSVP for the workshop, text or call 562-879-1954.
The third annual Mano-A-Mano Tournament winners are Gary Snow (l-r), fourth place; Tom Zimmerman, second; Kurt Bourhenne, first; and Steve Edrich, third.
