June 2022 - Hiki "Hang Ten" Raureti

This month’s Player of the Month is Hiki "Hang-Ten" Raureti.

Hiki is one of our better female players with great all-round skills, she is difficult to play as she doesn't have any real weaknesses.

 She is comfortable and efficient at the kitchen line which makes her a great doubles partner.

 Well done Hiki, keep playing and improving and don't be hard on yourself when you make a mistake.... we all do it!!

May 2022 - "Dancin" Dusty Marshall

This month’s Player of the Month is "Dancin" Dusty Marshall.

Dusty has been playing now for over a year and has steadily improved over that time.

He is hard to lob because of his great height, but equally hard to pass at the net due to his agility.

Watch out for Dusty on the courts as he is on the way up.

April 2022 - Greg "Razor" Ryan

This month’s Player of the Month is Greg "Razor" Ryan.

Greg has sharpened his skills very quickly since he began and is advancing up the divisions.

He has developed a great understanding of the game and improving his dinking game.

Good work Greg and keep improving and enjoying the game.

March 2022 - Matt "The Mountain" Scullion

Matt “The Mountain” Scullion is our player of the month for March.

 Matt is highly skilled pickleball player and has developed his game to a high level. His great height and agile footwork make him a formidable and imposing opponent.

 Try lobbing Matt when he is at the net, and you find out just how high you need to hit the ball to clear his outstretched arm and paddle. My calculation is around 10 feet!! Anything less results in an easy put away for someone of his skill

Keep improving Matt you’re a great pickleballer.

February 2022 - Greg "Hard to Crack" Almond

February 2022 Player of the Month - Greg "Hard to Crack" Almond

Greg has been with the club since the clubs early days and fair to say has taken a little while to find his feet with this new Pickleball game.

Due to Greg’s persistence and playing more Pickleball, he has now become a better all-round player, he moves on the court better, he understands the game strategy and has developed a wide range of shots, which has given him more confidence on court.

Great effort Greg. I admire your tenacity and look forward to playing with and against you.

December 2021 - Nathan "Gunslinger" Roberts

December 2021 Player of the Month - Nathan "Gunslinger" Roberts

Nathan is one of our young guns whose game has really come on in the last month. He has taken a while to find his feet, and even though had plenty of skill right from day one, he was getting taken down by the better players tactically. But look out, the man with backward cap “the gunslinger” is in town.

He is now a better player tactically and looking for revenge in the New Year.

Nathan was also one of the best performing players at the recent interclub match.

Well done Nathan you are polite and a pleasure to play with and against.

November 2021 - ‘Kruisin’ Keith Eigeland

November 2021 Player of the Month - ‘Kruisin’ Keith Eigeland.

After a cautious start to his Pickleball journey, Keith has developed into a quality player.

Keith does not have any big guns, he doesn’t have a flashy forehand, or a great 3rd shot drop. What he has is consistency, which allows him to play without errors.

So, be warned, if you come against Keith on the court you better be on your game because I can assure you he will. Well done Keith, keep improving you’re a good player.

October 2021 - Ethan "Octopus" Strawbridge

October 2021 Player of the Month - Ethan "Octopus" Strawbridge

Ethan has become one of our club's best players, he gets to balls all over the court with his long arms.

He also leads the young brigade, move over you "older" players because here they come!!!

September 2021 - “Dinking” Don Murray

September 2021 Player of the Month - “Dinking” Don Murray

Don has improved his all-round game and has become a very consistent player.

Well done Don!

You’re proving to be a valuable partner on court.

August 2021 - "Bruising" Bailey Somerville

August 2021 Player of the Month - "Bruising" Bailey Somerville

Bailey won a Gold and 2 Bronze medals at the Queensland Titles, which gave him the nod this month.

Bailey’s patience and shot selection has been where he has really improved.

Well done Bailey you are a pleasure to play with and against.

July 2021 - Alain "Ace" Leclair

July 2021 Player of the month goes to Alain "Ace" Leclair.

Alain has been improving steadily since his nasty shoulder dislocation last year.

Alain you are showing true grit in returning to play, well done.

June 2021 “Magic” Michael Nardella

Our June 2021 Club Player of the month - “Magic” Michael Nardella

Michael has quickly learnt some very key strategies on the Pickleball court.

Michael’s on court communication makes him an excellent pickleball doubles partner.

May 2021 - Brian "The Wall" Krisanski

May 2021 Player of the Month - goes to Brian "The Wall" Krisanski.

Brian has quickly found his feet with Pickleball and has become one of the club’s premier players.

Try passing Brian at the net next time you play him and you’ll find out why we have nicknamed him "The Wall".

April 2021 - "Sweet Swinging" Saule Burkitbayeva
