Hello gang!
First, Happy St. Patrick’s Day to one and all! ☘️

Which brings me to our Sham Slam countdown! Six days and counting!

Injury report: our defending YMCA men’s indoor champion, Mark Robidoux, has had to withdraw due to recent injury, so Ann Peardon is coming in off the waitlist and into the seed! We still have spots on the waitlist and if history is any guide, we’ll likely have to go to the list again and again before Saturday, so sign up!

Officiation: Mr. Robidoux, has graciously agreed to serve as our Head Referee for next Saturday’s big tournament, so be on your best behavior!

Prizes: Our generous sponsors have contributed a whopping $250 in prizes to support our Gleason Family YMCA pickleball program. A prize will be awarded before every round. Competitors will be able to choose from gift certificates to Southcoast Pickleball, Pickleball & More, Blue Foot Café, Lucky Goat Brewery, and lessons with Jess “The Pickleball Professor” Rego!

Lucrative Endorsement Deals: Tournament management is currently in negotiations with a prominent purveyor of top quality pickleball attire to award a prestigious and lucrative (free shirt!) official sponsorship endorsement deal to the tournament champion. Stay tuned!

Medals: next week’s medals will be the BIGGEST ever presented in YMCA pickleball history!

Media: Come prepared for a media onslaught. Liam Mayo, as Irish as they come, will likely be prowling the courts and bleachers for scoops, photos, and video for Wareham Week, his popular weekly WCTV cable TV wrap-up, and his YouTube TV news show. WCTV videographers have already advanced the event looking at lighting, acoustics, and prime shooting angles. The Blue Angels and Goodyear have requested FAA over flight clearance, and Lu Brito is handling crowd control!

That’s it. Karen and I look forward to joining you next Saturday. Sign-in and warm-ups start at 9am. Waitlisters join the seed at 9:25 to fill in for late-comers/no shows, and play starts promptly at 9:30. See you there!
Dan
