The Pan American Games were played this past week in Rio de Janeiro, and although it would have been great to play in a big event like that, we decided that staying in Europe and playing on the World Tour suited our goals better.

However, we had a great time following the progress of our Canadian men's team, Wes Montgomery and Jason Kruger, and women's team, Marie-Andree Lessard and Sarah Maxwell! They had very similar results, cruising through pool play and the first round of the playoffs undefeated. However both teams met their match in the medal rounds, eventually settling for fourth place. Great effort Wes, Jason, Marie, and Sarah!

Here are some articles about their experience in Rio:
