Sebring Shuffleboard Club hosted by Larry & Ruth Brown held a fun Sweetheart tournament today.

There were 70 shufflers signed up to play in this event and what a fun filled day it was. What made the day so great was what they were able to do on the courts. All rules were thrown out the window as we encourage teams to talk back and forth to their partner on what shots to take. If either a husband or a wife made a great shot they would yell down and say “meet me in the middle of the court for a valentine kiss”. There were a lot of kissing going on. Ruth & I came up with a few wrinkles to make the game a little more fun, such as, game 1; playing 8 frames on yellow & 8 frames on black, one of the partners had to get theirs in the kitchen before any points counted.Game 2; one of the partners had to get a ten before any points counted and game three, if you were right handed you had to shoot left handed for the first 4 frames & vice versa on each color.You never heard so much laughing & yelling
going on in a shuffleboard game. A special recognition to John & Lenora Holden coming from Ft. Meyers and Matt Broughton & Tyne Scybold from St. Pete.
After the prizes were given, everyone went to a local restaurant for fellowship & dinner.

1st place Gene & Maureen Tomlinson; 2nd place. Peter & Margaret White
