Queen of the Courts at Sandbox
Posted on February 5, 2023 by Ching under Food and Drink, Pickleball.
I haven’t been posting about the Queen of Courts because (a) we’ve had a few of them now, and (b) I think grandma is tired of reading about pickleball all the time. LOL. I have to post about the QoC we had at Sandbox last weekend, though, because it is quite special. Shawna Hight and Gloria Otis, a couple of ladies from the Tulsa, OK area, came to join us.
Here are a few pictures of Colby Fugit, who once again reigned supreme.
Colby was the reigning queen going into the session and won again on Sunday so she and Karen Fox are tied for the record of two back to back wins.
Shawna, Gloria, and I stayed for late lunch after playing. Here are some pics of our food.
It was so nice to have the two of them join us for QoC. I have driven down to OKC and Tulsa for DUPR sessions but never in my wildest dreams thought anyone would actually come up here to play with us. Anyway, this session had several new players participate in it also, so it was special in more ways than one.
I am so grateful for the wonderful pickleball community we have here. The ladies are so welcoming, and Shawna and Gloria fit right in. It’s awesome how this sport just brings everyone together.
Colby left her crown with me so we could play for it without her since she’s out of town the next couple of weeks but I am doing some mixed and men’s DUPR sessions instead that way she has the opportunity to also play and defend her title. I am looking forward to having our next QoC when she’s back. I am also looking forward to the next tournament when I can see Shawna and Gloria again. They are both so nice and so fun!
Until next time, GNG.
