And Newcomer Tournament!
A great opportunity to grow our Club!
How It Works: VOMPC Members invite a NEWCOMER (someone who has never been a member of a Petanque Club) (no ringers!) You and your guest will play together as a team throughout the day.
HowLong Will it Last? We’ll play two short format games starting at ~10:00 AM, then break for lunch. At this point, Newcomers are free to go! Guests who care to stay can keep playing in a single elimination tournament. Final should begin by 3:30, so not a long day.
Cost:$5/person. Bonus! Newcomers joining the VOMPC on the day of the tournament will receive a $10 discount on Membership Dues.
When: Saturday, March 23.
9:00 AM-9:30 AM sign up,
Play begins at 10:00 AM
Where: Depot Park, Sonoma
Lunch: Bring your own, or sign up (and pay) for a delicious sandwich from the Cheese Factory.
Need balls? We have loaner sets for your guest. Members, please bring extra sets.
Two or More Guests? By all means, bring them! You can play as a triplet (2 balls each player) or you can “loan” your newcomer to an unmatched VOMPC member at the sign-up table.
Don’t have a partner? Come anyway! We anticipate having many extra Newcomers.
