            This was a fantastic event. First, I want to thank the SVFA for
all of the help in breaking down the tournament room on Sunday. You people
made the long trip home a lot easier. The St. Jude's Children's Hospital was
our designated charity for this event foosball tournament event. With all of
the support of the local sponsors and players, we were able to send a check
in the amount of $1250.00 to the local chapter. The foosball players and
local support made a great impression on the St. Jude's representative. We
will be back next year for continued support. Wide Open once again proved to
be one of the most entertaining tournament sites on the Bonzini U.S.A.
Foosball Tour. The service and staff made everyone feel welcomed. The food
buffet provided to the players by Wide Open was greatly appreciated. Lisa
Overstreet, the manager of Wide Open, is absolutely the best tournament
player entertainer around. I want to thank our players from Quebec that
drove about 30 hours to attend this event. The attitude and dress of the
players was highly commendable. Thanks for showing your support.



            Congratulations to Tyler Tornello, the 2003 recipient of the
Bonzini U.S.A Excellence Award. Tyler is one of the most respected promoters
and leaders on the Bonzini U.SA. Foosball Tour. His effort to bring a new
vision of the marketing of foosball has propelled the acceptance of the
Bonzini foosball table in Florida. The community leadership he has displayed
and the love for the game of foosball made Tyler an easy selection to this
elite group. Congratulations Tyler!



            Mr. Jimmy Little, of Virginia Beach, VA, was this year's Bonzini
U.S.A. Player of the Year. Jimmy has led the tour in money earnings for the
past 2 years. The example he displays on and off the foosball table is a
standard for all to emulate. Known for his defensive and offensive skills
from the goalie position, Jimmy has maintained a high level of consistent
tournament victories for the past 20 years. Congratulations Mr. Little!



            Thanks go out to Olivier Sanquer and Thomas Barnouin from Quebec
for making the trip to VA. The playing progression of the Canadian player
base had improved tremendously. I look forward to seeing and supporting the
Canadian representatives at the Bonzini World Cup in May 2004.



            Moreover, to the Virginia Beach Foosball Association, we will be
sending a compensation check in the amount of $200.00 to the president,
Doris Little. The sponsorship drive helped cover all of our tournament
expenses so we would like you to accept our donation to your foosball funds.
