19th Annual Over The Hill Tournament

Posted on May 24, 2023 by Sidestreet Foisy

A few of us travelled to Scotts Valley for the 19th almost annual Over The Hill Tournament last Friday. Despite a valiant effort, the Scotts Valley men and women managed to eke out a victory. We were even on games until the fifth game but games do not count. We use a total point format to remove some of the competitiveness and promote a more friendly atmosphere. Scotts Valley did a great job hosting and put on a great event. We will be hosting next year. Here are some photos of the wonderful event.
