Along the shores of a mountainous, glacially landscaped wilderness, sits a small town, filled with people reawakening from the depths of the dark winter nights. The folk of this town have crawled out of their houses like long-lost zombies who have been cured of their plague and are in search of the light! And in this town, that light begins to shine in February. You may think that light is the sun, whose rays stay yet a bit longer in the second month of the year. But no, you would be wrong. The true light and rise of spirits comes from the wondrous joy of a sport where hollowed, holed balls thud off carbon fibered squares and bounce on a rubbery laminated floor full of colorful lines that obscure one’s eyesight as they dart in every direction.
Following me still?
The light I am talking about is the start of Seward’s Pickleball League!
Yes, we’re all so excited to be here for this year’s league! We have none-other than the stars of the basketball league to thank, for their untimely registrations to account for it.
And with all this excitement bubbling in our blood, let’s break-down what went down during week one of the Doubles Pickleball League.
Team Who unfortunately could not make it to week 1 and suffered a pair of losses via forfeit, giving Sassy Seniors and Dink pony Club a match win each.
The Sassy Seniors finished the night 1-1 after a hotly contested battle with Volley Llamas. The Volley Llamas finished 2-0 on the night, taking down Hot Dogs in the Hallway in a 3 set win.
Hot Dogs in the Hallway unfortunately could not battle back after their first loss and dropped both matches on the night going 0-2.
Nacho Average Ninja Servers vaulted themselves into first place with a pair of decisive victories.
New to the block, The Ogres looked strong, but dropped a tough one against Nacho Average Servers, then defeated the Sassy Seniors to even out their record.
Crow and Kristi took an individual game against Dink Pony Club, but the match loss then fell to the Ogres, while Dink Pony Club sits in 2nd with a 2-0 record.
