PRESIDENT'S YEAR END MESSAGE |
Seasons greetings to our Saskatoon Pickleball Inc. community! 2021 is winding down, and weʼve been enjoying lots of great pickleball play and camaraderie, outdoors at Father Basil Markle Park and upgraded Umea Park, and now indoors at Uptown Jackʼs, our newest state-of-the-art pickleball facility!
Looking back on 2021, our Club has experienced incredible progress and accomplishments, all in the challenging context of a global pandemic. This is largely thanks to our volunteers, our members, our partners and our Board of Directors.
SPI Volunteers, I canʼt thank you enough for your continued support! You have answered the call to assist with the roll-out of programs and you have provided extreme vigilance as we keep our Pickleball community safe, adhering to Public Health Orders and our Proof of Vaccination Policy. You continue to share the day-to-day workload, providing a safe, fun, and orderly environment for our 560+ members, and for that, our whole Club is very grateful!
And thank you to each of our 560 SPI members for your support! Every act showing your support, patience and understanding is recognized and appreciated. You are supporting our community by respectfully adhering to SPIʼs POV protocols, answering Covid-screening questions daily, chipping in to set up and take down equipment, providing input, and having patience as our Board of Directors sets protocols and monitors programs to meet the needs of our membership.
I also acknowledge our partners, Saskatoon Soccer Centre Inc. and the City of Saskatoon for believing in our vision of pickleball gathering hubs and believing that “if we build it, they will come.” We are proud of our partnerships that helped create Uptown Jackʼs, Father Basil Markle Park and Umea pickleball facilities. Our partnerships together with our supportive parent organizations, Pickleball Saskatchewan and Pickleball Canada are highly-valued.
And last but not least, I acknowledge the leadership and ongoing work of the SPI Board of Directors. Our team has worked tirelessly in 2021 on several focused areas including the special Uptown Jackʼs project, the Umea court expansion, the PSP 2021 tournament, and ongoing Committee work in programs, communications, finance, volunteers, strategic planning, facilities, governance, player development, membership and fundraising. Their efforts position us well for future growth.
Enjoy the festive holiday season with your loved ones! Check out Sign Up Genius for the bonus SPI Prime Time opportunities for both Reserve and Open Bucket play. And most important of all, letʼs stay safe and vigilant with our Covid-19 precautions, so that we are able to continue to enjoy all of the benefits of SPI Club pickleball play into the 2022 winter season!
