Our Fergus club encouraged our newer members from our club to play in this tournament, as many have never played outside their own club or have had minimal exposure to tournament play. This was to promote the game we love and to give them confidence , that what they have learned, was good enough to go out of their comfort zone, and compete with others. Win or lose , they were sure to have fun and meet many other shuffle friends.
Our members said they had a great day and met up with some very talented shufflers, not realizing that most were well seasoned shufflers with years of experience , and some of them pros. Like they say, anyone can be beaten on any given day. Well our Fergus shufflers surprised themselves, with nervousness set aside , they played hard and won the tournament, 34.5 games to 25.5 games for St. Mary’s.
We just wanted them to have fun and meet our gracious friends from St. Mary’s. We are very proud of them and we are sure you will see them next year signing up for tournaments. We thank St. Mary’s for coming to our club, and they have invited us back next year to their club for a rematch. (or revenge)? Shuffle, what a great sport!

GREATER NAPANEE SHUFFLEBOARD CLUB
Come and have FUN!
I just received the following email from Hubert van Eerd, Chatham club president, apparently forced one again into an uncertain situation for a place to play (survival of the club). If you read this and can pitch in to help with any ideas or resources, please let Hubert know. I’d suggest a word or two of encouragement would be a plus. (You may comment below on this post, or contact Hubert at 519-354-0758 or hcveerd@yahoo.com)
From Hubert ,09/09/2012:
— — — — — — — — — — –
“At this time we are looking for a different place to play.
We have a meeting with city officials scheduled for some time in October.
As soon as we know where we can play we will let you know.
“It is not likely that we can set up a schedule until spring as we have to wait until the hockey season is over.
“Thanks, Hubert

Thank you
This was our last tournament for this season.
Please note the attached email from CNSA President Myrna Bilton as issued through the OSA Secretary Maureen Bryan is GREAT NEWS! The 2013 Interprovincial (IP) Shuffleboard Tournament will be in Deieppe, New Brunswick!
Great expectations – It was in 2011 that the New Bruswick Shuffleboard Association and the City of Dieppe were hosts of the hugely successful 2011 ISA Singles Tournament. There is much on the CNSA website about that – Click on www.theshufflersnews.wordpress.org, then rest your mouse pointer over the menu item for Special Events, then click on ISA-2011-World Singles Dieppe NB. There will be more articles on this wonderful region of Canada and promoting the 2013 IP Tournament.
In the competition was between provincial teams, so to play, you had to apply to the applicable provincial association / organization or other contact. More to come on this.
Thanks Marlene – We’re always glad to be able to send out some shuffleboard results and news.

Hi,Bill:
We just finished a fun day of Single Mingles in London Ontario. After talking to Rendall and Myrna Bilton as well as Ross Kirkpatrick, we decided it would be a good idea to have the placings posted. Hopefully we can get other clubs interested in holing a Single Mingles competition. Right now we only have Chatham and London in the southern area. Hubert Van Eerd is also going to be sending his results to you after Thursdays event. Hope this will help to motivate other clubs. Marlene

The latest changes include three new pages of information available via the black-bar menu: Business (Minutes of OSA meetings etc.), Hall Of Fame, and History. Contents were moved over from the former website. Still to come: The Clubs page to be populated from the old site, and a page for Player Points to be added when the up-to-date stats are available. Meanwhile the Home page is still where to look for the latest Ontario shuffleboard news

Hello everyone. This is the alternative Ontario Shuffleboard home page. We aim to make it even better than the other Ontario Shuffleboard website, which is currently off the air due apparently to technical difficulties since June 9th, originating with the service provider, Web Hosting World. means we must take the steps to begin to replace the old OSA website – beginning with an immediate focus on information about this summer’s tournaments and results.
Why the change from previous “The Ontario Shuffler” web pages? After two years of providing us with good service, our hosting service provider (Web Hosting World) took us off the air immediately after accepting our money ($27.00) for the coming year. Some excuses were provided, including “server problems” but now, just silence. The OSA website has been off the air for a week, and it appears that Web-Hosting-World does not care. Hopefully WHW can get things working again, otherwise we must permanently switch to a more reliable hosting services company – in this case WordPress.
WordPress has a good track record – reliable service to The Shufflers News for CNSA Shuffleboard Canada, plus The Coronado/Mainland Shuffler.
So this is it, for now. The “About Us” page is in place, and the Events page which shows the upcoming Ontario tournaments. Click on either menu item located in the “black bar” menu above. Tournament results and other news will be posted via the Home page, and a list of all articles posted is shown on the right sidebar.
The next step is to post information about Ontario Shuffleboard Clubs.
