Petanque Amelia Open--2021

 Below are some pics Carolina Petanque's Mike Owens sent on November 7, 2021, less than a week before this year's edition of the Petanque Amelia Open was to start. Construction & flooding!

Then, about a week later play is happening as usual!

Finally, some pictures from Kirk's and Bo's FACEBOOK postings showing Carolina Petanque players in action at The Big Show:

 

Congratulations to all those who placed for awards in the 2021 Petanque Amelia Open in Florida. Carolina Petanque had nine (9) players who finished in the money! Marked with red dots on the picture below:

A special congratulations from Carolina Petanque to this year's Grand Champions, Roland & Ziggy, who defeated multi-time World Champion, Marco Foyot of France, and his partner, Bernard Martin, in the finals. Roland and Ziggy both play out of Ohio, and Ziggy is an actual member of the Zanesfield Petanque Club!

Ziggy and Roland

 

First time ever that the USA has fielded both players of the winning team at Amelia? Maybe so. If anyone knows for sure, please let me know.
