Sandy Springs Wins the Cup

Congratulations to the Sandy Springs team for winning the PPL Championships, this for the 2nd time in 3 seasons. Captained by Bob Stratton, SST edged out Cherokee in the final match on the day which included 14 matches and some 40 League players competing. It was a mild and sunny late February day at the beautiful Cherokee Town Club paddle venue, with Erik Becker, again running the event for the Peachtree Paddle League.

Coach Thaddeus Reed from Cinci comes to Town

Atlanta was pleased to welcome Thaddeus Reed, a legendary Platform Tennis coach from Cincinatti Country Club, who came at the invitation of his former student and now Atlanta resident & PPL Member, Dawn Mullican. Thaddeus taught a series of terrificly helpful clinics while in town, including for the ladies Region VII President Cup team, captained by Ms. Freddy Goldenberg and sponsored by ULINE Packaging. He also did a special clinic for an eager group of junior paddle players, all at the beautiful Cherokee Town Club paddle venue.

The newly formed ladies RVII PC team will compete in Chicago in early March during the National Championships and will include 7 of 12 players from Atlanta - a great testament to the spectacular growth of Atlanta paddle and the leadership Freddy has shown.
