Jeff Bally’s Holiday Hoedown
Posted on December 14, 2023 by Ching under Pickleball.
Some friends helped me test the team tournament function of Swish a couple of weeks ago. Swish is an app that another friend turned me on to a couple of months ago. I’d been testing it out for round robins for a few weeks but I wanted to try the team event feature. Thankfully, another friend (Jeff Bally) let us use his place to hold the team tournament. We called it Jeff Bally’s Holiday Hoedown.
- We had four teams compete:
- Picklebally’s – Jeff Bally, Casey Compton, Olivia Banks, and Bobby Weisbrodt
- Cotton Headed Ninny Muggins – Cindy and Ed Egan, Brandi Richardson, and Ramon Lozano
- The Picklers – Seth Mountain, Greta Siemens, and Sydney and Jon Duvall
- Phamily – Tom Pham, Sarah Berry, Fernando Martinez, and Natalie Lubbers
After five rounds of round robin pool play, one team emerged supreme. The Phamily went completely undefeated that day.
It was a successful test run of the Swish team tournament function. We started around 9 AM and wrapped shortly after 2 PM. I just followed the prompts on the app and everything ran pretty smoothly.
Next up, I’ll be testing the new DUPR X Swish integration. So far I’ve been really impressed with what this free app can do and I’m excited to run future events on their platform.
