Summer Singles - 2010

[Isaac]

Andy Campbell will be spearheading a singles league this summer. It will be very similar to the singles that he, Christina and myself ran last summer. People seemed to really enjoy it I think, and there was some fun competition to watch and take part in. A great atmosphere on those busy A&L nights.

Details have yet to be hammered out, but I wanted to put this on people's radar, as it is something I know there is interest in.

Feel free to post any questions here for us. We will post answers when we can, or when we know, but you might even just remind us of something we haven't thought of as we get the details straight for this exciting event!

Shoot well!

Wanted to bump this and update people on this Summer Singles league.

Signups for this Weekly event over the summer will be at the A&L Tavern, June 10th at 7pm.

The regular season of the singles league will be played weekly over 10 weeks from June 17th to August 26th. A free entry tournament for all participants will be held at the A&L on Sept. 2nd and payouts will be awarded at that time.

Hope to see lots of participants! We had a great turnout last summer, and I'd love to see even more this time around. Divisions will be somewhat small with people of comparable skill from our league rankings. Great test of skill and lots of darting fun as always!!!

Cool - thanks for the info. I'm hoping to play again; it was fun last year ... other than the part about you beating me in the playoffs and ruining my chance to get a second shot at Tony. As it turned out, Nick took out Tony, so I wouldn't have had the chance, anyway. So ... I guess I can forgive you.

[Isaac]

[JohnP]

Can't remember why I thought Nick won; must've heard or assumed wrong. Darn it, now I'm pissed again! (not really)

Anyway, are the PADA rankings published anywhere? I'm assuming you're referring to something beyond just the singles rankings for each division.

[Isaac]

The most current PADA Player Rankings can be found...

Right about....

Great turnout for sign ups with over 30 people already signed up and a few more trickling in.

There are a lot of people at all levels - with an exceptional strong and numerous C division - and more are still welcome. If you'd like to join in still let me know by Sunday when we will be setting up the divisions.

Should be a great Summer Season!!!

If we could end up with 42, that would be just about perfect.

Good job PADA board! And good job local players--the singles league was a blast last year...

(wish I could commit this summer... )

Isaac, are there gonna be stats up for the singles league, like regular season league? That would be way cool, even if they are simplified...

We were very pleased with how this broke down and it will make for some very even match ups all through the league! I am really looking forward to this fun and competitive atmosphere and think everyone will have immense amounts of fun while getting to improve their dart game.

IMPORTANT: DIVISIONS 1, 3, 5 and 6 WILL BE PLAYING EVERY WEEK AT THE A&L TAVERN
DIVISIONS 2, 4 and 7 WILL BE PLAYING EVERY WEEK AT THE SELLWOOD PUBLIC HOUSE

Individual match ups for each week will be posted on portlandsingles.leaguerepublic.com so people will know who they are playing each week. Please be proactive in contacting opponents if a reschedule is necessary. It is summer after all, and I am sure some reschedules will be needed, but in my experiences players are always accommodating in making a match work out.

Everyone have fun, shoot well and display the great sportsmanship that PADA darts represents!

Super duper excellent job Icicle. I for one am soooooo appreciative of how much time and energy the board members volunteer so that the rest of us can enjoy so many awesome darting opportunities. And all for nothing more than the love of the game. Very cool...
