Well it only took seven national shuffleboard tournaments to finally place in one and my partner Janet and I got 2nd place in mixed doubles in Hendersonville North Carolina

Congratulations!

Please Note.  Our courts have been repaired and will be dry for use on Monday June 1.   The board has re-evaluated our 9:00 am play time and there does not seem to be any difference so as of Monday morning we will once again BEGIN PLAY AT 10:00 AM.  Hope to see all of you there.

Hope you are all having a great summer. PLEASE NOTE: The Courts will be closed to play on May 29, 30 and 31st. Ace is coming in to make the repairs on the damaged courts. We want them to have free access and not have any interference. Thank you everyone for your cooperation. Mike

The Executive Board and Daily Hosts would like to evaluate the new start time of 9:00 am instead of 10:00 am, starting on Monday Morning May 18th. This evaluation will continue for at least the next month until June 30th. At that time we can reassess what playing members think about this summer start time. Thank you for your attention to this notice.

Sharon Wilde has resigned from her position as secretary of the Northern District Shuffleboard Association.  Her decision was based on scheduling conflicts and personal reasons.  We thank her for her time on the Board.

We are now seeking anyone interested in filling the secretary role within the association for the balance of her term (March 2027).  Since our next meeting is not scheduled until October 2026, we have ample time for a smooth transition.

If you or know anyone who might be interested in the position or have any questions, please reach out to me directly.

Joseph Inga, President

Northern District Shuffleboard Association
