Winter 4v4 Championship Series Update

Coming out of the second leg of the tour, Victoria and Vancouver vie for the top honours across all four divisions of competition. In the Open division, the Palm Bros’ young guns win the battle, but silver medallists Skunk in the Face win the war for cumulative totals. In the Women’s division, Vancouver-based Where’s My ‘Phyr comes back against the field and trumps the island’s Sloppy Lizards for the win that counts, securing the highest point total in the series so far. But with the last tournament in the series taking place in Kelowna, the crown may go to whoever goes the distance.

Nelson’s Home Grown, sitting comfortably at 70 points in the Open field, only needs a semi-finals appearance in Kelowna to force a tiebreaker! Will Victoria take the fight to Kelowna for the trophy? Join the Kelowna FB Event for updates about when sign up starts!
