The Deltaville Community Association (DCA) pickleball courts were in full swing on Saturday, Aug. 16. A group of pickleball players invaded the DCA courts in town for a pickleball tournament. There were 16 teams and 32 individual people playing.
This was a fundraiser for recent maintenance of the DCA courts. There were players from Deltaville, Mathews, Gloucester, Wake and Hartfield.
“It was a wonderful morning of pickleball,” said DCA Board Member Gail Butler, who helped organize the event. “Thanks to Sandy Bottom restaurant for gift certificates for the winners, Carolos Morales for the donation of pickleball towels, Hal and Sue Tench for working out the draw sheet, Megan and Sarah for some wonderful bagels and other snacks, and Bev Butler and Ron Deck for keeping all the players in line and getting them on the correct courts. That was a big job! Thanks to all the players that came to play.”
