Calimero Challenge
Calimero challenge was played each Tuesday night in May with NO cancellations due to weather - despite the forecasts!. Each evening, we had six teams of four players playing a fast four format with extra rules thrown in to make it more fun. Each week dinner was provided with Calimero providing us pizzas for the first and last week, Eden Noodle Cafe in Eastridge supplied us delicious dumplings and Paula put on her famous Ham on the bone with salad rolls.
|
Unfortunately, the last night we were rained off the courts. Little did we know one of our new Club Managers - Lara - is a Trivia expert and entertained us all with running a few rounds of Trivia to finish off the night.
|
Congratulations to Team Martina were the overall winners (photo below).
|
|
Huge thanks to Jeremy & Talita from Calimero Pizzas for sponsoring us once again and providing delicious Pizza. Thanks also to everyone that helped put this together - John W, Steve & Lara, Paula I for her ham & Lou for turning up each week to serve you all drinks!
