Ladies and Gentlemen, the King's Head Pub is proud to announce the very first King's Head Season Opener Doubles Mixer Tournament and Crokinole Tournament Fundraiser!

Players can register with a male or female doubles partner into either the A/B event or the C/D event.  Players will get to play with their partner of choice for a minimum of 3 matches in this fun tournament to start off the year.  We're anticipating a lot of fun and funny games considering that some Men's Doubles teams will be playing Women's Doubles, and Mixed Doubles playing Women's Doubles, etc. etc. etc.  The tournament will start Saturday afternoon and end in the evening, followed by a buffet dinner and crokinole tournament.

There will be prizes for A/C Winners & Runners Ups, B/C Winners & A/B/C/D Consolation Winners.

The Buffet will be upstairs at the Winter Club and will offer exactly what a buffet is: LOTS OF FOOD!

The 2-on-2 Crokinole Tournament will be open to anybody who's interested in coming to socialize or simply donate to the "Friends of Badminton Manitoba" (FBM) Endowment Fund.  That means that friends who didn't make the tournament can still come to socialize in the evening.

If you're not sure what Crokinole is, don't worry, neither were we!  Here's a YouTube video showing you how to play: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ud301ESDfeE

There will be prizes for the top teams in the Crokinole tournament, and we will be playing badminton videos and/or other sports on the TV's in the Players Lounge for other entertainment.  Friends are welcome to simply hang out, have a drink and chat it up!

Tournament Entry: $40 (includes buffet)
