Practice times are Mondays and Wednesdays at 9 a.m. Starting time for league play is 8:30 a.m. on Fridays. Players are asked to arrive on time for a starting position.

The first Joan LaCascia Tournament will be held May 27. It will be a three-game competition, with the top three highest total point scorers rewarded. Sign up at the courts.

BYOB practice nights, tournaments and other social events continue to be planned for Shuffleboard members and their guests.

Shuffleboard is an entertaining and challenging game of skill and strategy. No partners are necessary, and all equipment is provided. The only requirements are closed-toe shoes with non-skid soles. In order to use the Shuffleboard Courts, people must be trained in court setup, maintenance and play, with the goal of becoming a participating club member.
