Jeff Bally’s Holiday Hoedown

Posted on December 14, 2023 by 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.
