Only four more weeks until the season comes to a close! But we have a lot packed into the last month, so make sure you don't miss out on a thing! Read on for more information on all of the happenings!
APPL Standings and last Home Game
Once again our guys came out strong and pulled out a win over the Sunbird Resort “Just hit it” guys.
The final score was 27-20. It was a little closer match than we wanted but their stronger play was likely due to their home court advantage. This win gives us a 6/3 Win/Loss record with one tougher match yet to play on Sunday. Phil had to pull out with a sore calf so Perry filled in on the 3rd match for a perfect 3-0 win.
Phil Thwaites / Perry Young & Dave Trimmer 12pts
John Elands & Steve Vielleux 9pts
Chris Chansley & Kerry Schaefer 6pts
Our last match on Sunday March 3rd here in GC at 1pm, and is an important one against the current 2nd place team.
Please come out and support our players! A strong contingent of support from our GC members makes a huge difference!
Cheers,
Perry Young
Gold Canyon Cup - Canada vs USA Annual Tournament
WHEN: Saturday March 16th, 2024 from 9 am- 3 pm
Come play (or watch) to find out which country has bragging rights this year for the Gold Canyon Cup Trophy!
The final event of the season will be a double’s round robin tournament, where we will pair 2 different players from Canada against 2 different players from the USA in each round. Players will have a different partner from your country each game.
The country with the highest total score will win the Gold Cup. In case of a tie, there will be a sudden death playoff game between the highest scoring players from each country.
We will accept the first 28 players from each country divided into 2 divisions (Advanced/High Intermediate & Intermediate/Novice). Please do your best to sign into the appropriate level to ensure that everyone has fun.
There are 14 slots for each country in each level, and we will maintain a waitlist for all four categories.
Registration opens Tuesday March 5th at 4pm. A maximum of 2 players can be registered at one time.
Due to the popularity of this event, please only sign up if you are sure you will be able to attend as cancellations make it difficult for us to maintain equal numbers for each team and skill level. If you miss the registration, you can still register to be on the waitlist in the case of a cancelation.
Even if you are not able to play in this tournament, please come watch this event
and cheer on your country!

Chair Tournament Committee
