The very first tournament of the year did not turn out very well for us. It was played in the Pickleball Warehouse in Marionville, MO. The facility itself is a simple metal building with cement floors that have been sealed….causing quite an array of bizarre, unexpected random bounces. Plus the background included one wall of nothing but upright poles for pole vaulting. For me…..it was incredibly tough to see the ball come out of those. Not an excuse, but no one had a clean, pretty match that I saw. Most were one or two hits and done due to the conditions. But it was nice to see familiar faces and play a few games.
We will hope for a better showing at our next event!
