Please note that there was an error in recording the results from the Masters Tournament. Apparently the matches between John Giumarra and Rex Galusha were recorded in reverse so the final results for the Pro Men in the Masters should read:

Well tomorrow Mid Florida Lakes will be hosting the Northern District Masters Tournament. The shufflers have worked all season to earn the right to play in this tournament. We wish the finalists all Good Luck. Have a great tournament.

This year we were saddened to hear that our friend David Nitchie had passed away. He was so close to receiving his Hall Of Fame Jacket that the board voted to award it to him posthumously. The following are pictures of the NDSA presenting Dave Nitchie’s daughter, Pam and son-in-law, Guy with his HOF Jacket.  Also pictures of the Dave Nitchie plaques which will now be presented to the 1^st place winners of the TOC for the Men’s/Ladies Pro Division presented by the Leesburg Shuffleboard Club.  The other pictures are of Fred Newman and Patty Foster being given going away gifts for all the work they have done over the years for the Leesburg Shuffleboard Club as they will not be returning back to Florida.

The Leesburg Shuffleboard Club held the Tournament of Champions (TOC) this year. Bob Robinson and Tom Brown were our Directors and our sponsors were Joe and Chris Inga, Lyle and Katy Walker, Lee and Carol Helfer, David Nitchie and Family, and C.H. Evans Roofing and Contracting. Anyone who had placed in a tournament this year and qualifiers from past years could participate. Congratulations to all the shufflers. Frank Wilson Special Award

The Frank Wilson Special award is given to the Top Amateur Lady and the Top Amateur Man.
Debbie Clark and Dave Strock received this award.

A new plaque, The Dave Nitchie Memorial Plaque was given to the top Pro Lady and Pro Man.
Gail Howell and Al Dronsfield received this award.
