From Carl Rogerson:
The OSA wish to extend our heart felt condolences to Rose Irwin and family, in the loss of Jim Irwin.
Many of the Ontario shufflers will remember both Rose and Jim, and over the years we have had the opportunity to know them both. They have been very instrumental in promoting shuffleboard, and known to be such fun players.
Prayers from all of us who knew this lovely couple.
Jim will be remembered as a friend and a gentleman.

I have contacted Coldwater, Goderich ,Elora and Blenheim shuffleboard clubs for season 2021 OSA tournaments.We have all agreed that due to the Covid-19 virus, that this season of shuffleboard is cancelled. Lets hope this finds all our members in good health and getting or about to get our vaccinations soon. I know we will all miss the sport and the friendships we make. Lets strive to begin again next season. Best wishes to all, enjoy the warm weather we are about to have. Regards Maureen Bryan Sec. OSA.

The city of London has informed me, that due to Covid, there will not be any Shuffling at Silverwoods Arena this season.

With my apologies, I must tell you that the previous post about a change for the date of the 2021 Iner-Provincial in Bridgewater NS was incorrect. This was due to a misunderstood email from CNSA president Jim Corbeil. Jim has just emphatically informed me that the date has not yet changed but there will be a CNSA decision about the date on March 28th.
I will be removing the previous post on this matter.

Alphonse and Phoebe Marchand were recognized by the Canadian National Shuffleboard Association on Thursday, July 7, 2016, near Chatham, Ont. for their contribution to the sport, including hosting the first Canadian Open shuffleboard tournament in 1980.

Alphonse and Phoebe Marchand loved to have family and friends visit their Tilbury-area farm, and a big draw was their shuffleboard courts.
The couple, who were snowbirds, gained a passion for the game while wintering in…

From Carl Rogerson
It is with great sadness to learn of the passing of Howard Snider from Wasaga, who was an avid shuffler from the Coldwater Club. He had played in several OSA tournaments, and just recently sold their place in Florida last spring. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him. Always a gracious and friendly player win or lose.
Our thoughts go out to his family and friends.
Regards OSA board. Carl Rogerson, Pres.
