Na - The National Senior Sports Clas- sic was believed to be only open to winners of state level competitions in the United States, but as wit- nessed by Lucan shuffleboarder Verna Heywood, Canada was rep- resented by a handful of senior ath- letes. Since Heywood spends the win- ter months with her husband in Ari- zona, she qualified for the national competition after placing third in that state's Senior Olympics. While in Arizona, she and her husband spend three days a week playing this sport at the Trailer Village in which they live, and in and out -of - park league. Heywood, who won a silver med- al in Syracuse, said the facilities in New York were equipped for the team events such as volleyball, bas- ketball, softball, and badminton, and the individual sports including swimming, track and field, triatha- lon, and bowling. However, a shuf- fleboard court had to be improvised since the sport has not yet taken hold in the state of New York. "The people from Syracuse be- came very interested in shuffle- board while we were there, and are now thinking about putting in play- ing areas for shuffleboard," says Heywood. Hilda Greenwood of Niagara Falls, who is the mother of Haro- line Sire of Lucan, was also select- ed to represent Arizona in the shuf- fleboard competition. She, too, lives in Trailer Village in Mesa, Ar- izona in the winter. Tournament winners - Students of er recently participated in a tourna in the top of their age group were: ing; Bill Sanders, fifth in Kata; and If Bo can do it - The Exeter Cen- tennials men's soccer club took advantage of a break in their schedule to play a little golf.
