Yanick Laulhe and Bernard Martin win at Oh La La

L to R: Gilles, Yanick, Bernard, Roger

Yanick Laulhe and Bernard Martin defeated Gilles Canesse and Roger Arpaia to win today's select doubles tournament at the Oh La La Petanque Club in Sanford, Florida.

Carolina Petanque sent three teams to the tournament.  The Carolina teams of Bo and Parker Edwards, Danny and Sue Daniels, and Gary and Shirley Jones each won two and lost one in the qualifying rounds.  That was good enough to get them in the Concours (Championship) bracket.  The field of 28 teams saw 16 teams go to the Concours and 12 teams go to the Consolante (Consolation) brackets.

All three Carolina teams lost in the round of 16 to put an early end to hopes of moving on to the quarter finals.
