Ontario Seniors Triples Championships 2018 in Burlington

This was quite an experience for our novice men playing in this seniors tournament with some of the most experienced teams in the province. We were two and out but didn't embarrass ourselves and as I post this our Women are still alive heading to round four. I will post a link to the live OLBA results page so we can see how the women fare throughout today. I will add comments later (as always you can click on photos to enlarge them).

Here is the link to the results:
