Pin Dodge 2K11: After

The 9th annual Pin Dodge tournament took place this past weekend, and with much success! No injuries, and for the most part, everyone was on time, and on point with keeping the games moving along. We broke the regular season into a 'double round robin' format, that totaled 42 games played. Then we had a double elimination tournament for the playoffs.

Unfortunately my run at a 4th consecutive championship fell just short this year, as my team finished 4th out of 7. However, the championship did remain in the family, as my brothers team completely ran the field this year without losing a single game. We had excellent weather with not terribly hot temperatures and low humidity with a few passing clouds to give us a break from the sun. All in all, it was a great day, and provided everyone a chance to catch up and see friends who don't live in the area anymore. Next year will be our 10th anniversary of playing, so we'll definitely have to do something big! In the meantime, enjoy these pictures that both Katie, and myself took!

7 teams, prepared for battle.

Pin Dodge!

And the chaos begins.

Exchanging throws.

 Bright colors.

Sometimes it's fun to aim for people, and not the pins.

Here I am hoping that ball doesn't hit a pin.

A victim from 2, 3, maybe 4 years ago? Still laying dead in the woods.

The gang one more time.
