Setting Up the Tournament

The day began with the different teams assembling at the Royal Oak piste. Some came from Chicago, others, flew in from Britain, still others were shuttled in from Detroit by other members.

We put together 12 triplette teams - and with six courts to play we even utilized space on the adjoining baseball field.

Cyrille composed the match ordering, score number crunching, while Dawid (Chicago Petanque Club) lent some useful advice on the ranking system.
