News from north of the border

Over the past few years, Canadians had begun to leave their mark on the paddle scene, and not just due to their long-standing reputation to be the last to close the bar at Shadow Lake (Penfield, NY, near Rochester) at Halloween.

Consequently, the Executive Board of the Canadian Platform Tennis Association (CPTA) felt it timely to begin to introduce the members of the APTA to Canadian goings-on.

[Note: Hall of Fame inductee Chuck Baird had spent some years in Toronto when he was with International Nickel Company of Canada (INCO) in the 1970s and had served on the Canadian Platform Tennis Association and was instrumental in getting them to join the APTA]

The Winter edition of Platform Tennis News ran the report from the CPTA.
