Madagascar Open Tournament 6/24/07 - Bryant Park










A beautiful day, perfect weather, superb company! The Madagascar Open at Bryant Park was a fantastic opportunity to meet other petanquers from all over...the US, Canada, & yes, Madagascar...We entered with 4 teams: Jean Luc & Philippe, Bobo & Clement, Bernard & Jonathan, and Eduardo & Monica. After 3 games Jean Luc & Philippe, Bernard & Jonathan moved into the round of 16. Not bad considering many at the tournament play everyday! Bobo, Clement, Eduardo & Monica all put in tremendous efforts and made some great shots - they played against some really tough opponents.

Many thanks to Ernesto Santos and his club for putting on a wonderful tournament in a magical setting, and for extending their warm welcome and generous hospitality !

The PCW made its presence known in Bryant Park today, and although we didn't fare as well as we would have liked, we appreciated the talented players who were present

...and Jim, the folks at LBNY are happy to hear that you're playing in Westchester. They send their regards!!
