. On Saturday July 18,
2020 the PPB Billiards Club hosted an 8-Ball Singles Tournament
in HOA1’s Catalina Recreation Center (CRC) Billiards Room. The format was single game, double elimination.
Due to COVID-19, all participants were
required to wear face masks, sanitize their hands before every game, only 8
players at a time were allowed in the billiard room with the other participants
having to wait in the card room or outside to keep Social Distancing. Everyone seemed to endure the masks even
though some had difficulty breathing easily and some having their eyeglasses
fog up while playing.
Tournament Directors were Dominic Boland and Joe Giammarino. The following field of 16 players gathered to play competitive 8-Ball. Phelps “Frenchfry” L'Hommedieu, Steve Searl, Tom “Blind Squirrel” Barrett, Chris “MadDog” Madsen, Julie “Cutter” Ferguson, Jerry Cogswell, Bob “O” Ogle, Steve Wiley, Fred “The Baker” Dianda, Dick Steinsvagg, Dick “The Visor” Titus, Dominic “The Doctor” Borland, Romayne Trudo, Henry Krebs, Nancy “Whack-A-Mole” Barrett, and Tony Cardillo.
