Saturday, September 19 – National Women’s Triples
We are proud to host the National Women’s Triples tournament and hope many of our women will participate. Because this is a national tournament, FPUSA has set the entry fee at $150.
Starting this week for the rest of the summer, we will do Wednesday evening play at 6:00 pm at Lay Park. It is a great time to play! The park is usually quiet except for the sounds of nature, and the trees provide needed shade from the sun. It is also nice that it gives those of us that are still working another chance to play besides Sunday.
Look forward to seeing you out there!
And watch for another Brats Beats and Boules in July!

Request of Funds for Prize Money for the SE Regional Women’s Doubles Tournament
Members of the Board reviewed a request from the SE Regional Women’s Doubles tournament directors in regard to using some funds from our treasury in order to provide a more equitable distribution of prize money. The question dealt with the fact that first and second place winners of Concours would receive medals and prize money. The third-place finishers in this category would receive just a medal. However, in the Consolante category, first place would receive a cash prize. It was thought that this did not seem fair to the Concours third place winners as this is a category placing higher than Consolante. The CCP board voted to approve (6-0) to provide the sum of $70 each to the two Concours third place winners. These funds will be disbursed to the players the weekend of June 6 and 7.
Regular play times on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Sundays change to 10 a.m. beginning June 2, 2026. In addition, we will begin additional play on Wednesday and Friday evenings shortly. Please check back for information about the additional days to play our favorite sport – Pétanque!
