Here's a report from George Marinakis about the successful conclusion of the Fall and Winter ladders, held in the mid-Island and involving over 40+ players:
"2018 Ladder Concludes – 2019 Ladder to Begin in Jan 8/2019
Our ladder event for 2018 has now come to a successful conclusion. The ladder started back in May 2018 at Kerry Park, and has now turned out to be a year round event, much enjoyed by all of us pickleball enthusiasts. Since May, the competition level has risen and continues to rise.
Our next 'Winter Into Spring' ladder will start in January 8, 2019 and will run until March 26 at Mellor Hall (Duncan).
Below are the percentages of the first five top players in our most advanced "S" Group, from the recent Fall and Winter Sessions. As these weighed percentages indicate, we will need one to two players at around 4.5 level in January to balance the S Group. Anyone interested in playing in this fast-paced pickleball event, both challenging and stimulating, please contact any of the three organizers:
