Greetings AZ Foosers -
I am posting today to announce my retirement from running Foosball tournaments. It has been a honor to run events in AZ for the past 8 years. I could not ask for a better group of foosers, and I consider many of you good friends. Over the past three months I have attempted to rekindle my passion for foos and running events, however I am just not having fun playing the game anymore and need to take some time away.
I am hopeful that someone will step up at Dukes and take over running the tournies. If any one is interested please give me a call and we can discuss it. As far as the tables go I am willing to either sell or lease for purchase, or even just have someone continue running the events for a percentage is fine by me. Just get in touch and see what we can work out.
I want to personally thank those of you over the years that helped out at Cactus Moon and then Dukes. First to departed (no he is not dead) fooser Rich Loomis who helped to find the Moon and purchased one of our first tables there. Also to Mark D and Derek Martin who also went in on tables at the Moon when we went from two to four. Bill Nolan for placing league teams and events in both locations to continue to support and grow AZ foos, and for teaming up with me for the 5 big events we ran over the past 5 years. Michael Lawrence, thanks so much for stepping in and helping to run events when I was not able to. Thank you Mike Sames for your excellent advice for running events and helping whenever asked. Bob Duncan thank you fur running events when I could not and for helping me with the tables at the Gilbert tourney last year, and for your excellent table maintenance. Also a thank you to Ronnie, Michael C, Rick W, JB, and anyone else that helped me call matches and run events over the years. Many thanks to Jim King for writing the outstanding foos articles over the past few years. A special thanks to Ash for helping promoting and adding significant cash to several events and hosting a large event at his home. Lastly a big thank you to Bryan Hendricks and Rissa, for putting serious time and effort and coming up with some new and inventive ways to promote foosball to benefit both the promoters and players.
Lastly a huge thank you to all the players. You are all Arizona Foosball, and serving you has been an honor.
Happy foosing amigos!
Respectfully,
Brad
