Hi everyone. It's time to register for this tournament. Crokinole is growing and it should be even bigger than last year. For the American players living near the New York Throughway the tournament is an easy drive from the border. Consider driving on Friday, staying overnight in Hamilton, and driving back Sat evening. Don't let Ontario players will all the prizes. Remember, your dollar goes further in Canada. You will require a passport (or enhanced drivers license) though.

Hello Crokinole players. There are 42 entries to this tournament. We can accommodate more. send in your late entry. We will be happy to see it. If you cannot decide until the last minute just show up early on the day of the tournament. We can most likely fit you in. Come on out for the final tournament of the crokinole tour and see the finish. Either Nathan Walsh (current leader) or Justin Slater (coming from behind) will win the tour. It will be a great day.

Hi everyone. There is still room for a half-dozen more entries. Shrug off those mid-winter blues and come and play crokinole.

The forecast is for warm weather with the tiniest amount of rain. The drive from anywhere should be easy. Send your late entry in.

Next Saturday this is being played in Brucefield (on the road to London). Don't be fooled! Even though this is being held in a small town it may be the strongest doubles tournament ever held in the World! Come out and be a part of it and see the new strong teams (perhaps you)  challenge the old guard. Be a part of it!

Hello out there!  I think I remember seeing a camera looking at the 3rd place game at the WCC, does anyone know about this?  I'd like to watch the footage over again to see where I can improve (and also to prove to my friends that it actually happened!)

Great to see so many players at Saturday's Belleville Crokinole Challenge.  We really appreciate all of you for making the trip.  It was a very competitive A division with Justin Slater winning for the 3rd year in a row.  Congrats to Eric Miltenburg for winning the B division and Peter Carter coming on top of the C division.  Bev Vaillancout was the High Woman Score and Nathan Walsh ended up High Twenties.  Wayne Scott took the Twenties 50/50 contest.

Back by popular demand, the WCC Fantasy Pool has returned for another round of wild speculation, bold prediction and seething crokinole players looking to destroy you after you left them off your list.

The 2015 Fantasy Pool victor was Clare Kuepfer, with co-2nd-place finishers of Fred Slater and Jon Conrad. Their prediction prowess proved preferable, but it is time to challenge those assertions, start your player analysis,…
