HANDSOME BILL’S 75TH BIRTHDAY TOURNAMENT

This past Sunday, November 1st, 155 players joined us as we celebrated Handsome Bill's 75th Birthday with a Sunday Night Tournament! The tournament was a great success and the birthday boy was overwhelmed by all the happy birthday wishes. He even joined his own tournament and nearly won every game (nearly)!

Who is this handsome guy, you ask?  Bill Scott is Director of ICC Tournaments and has been an integral part of ICC operations for many years.  Bill, who goes by the username Billscotty on ICC, has organized thousands of tournaments and gained the admiration of members and staff with his loyal dedication. And if that wasn't enough, well Bill is devilishly handsome, hence the nickname wink

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILL and thank you for all you do to make the tournaments run flawlessly on ICC!
