National level player and Olympic hopeful Barney Reed came to Knoxville

to play in our tournament and on the Friday previous to the tournament

appeared on local afternoon TV show Alive at Five on WBIR here in Knoxville.

 

Barney and Roger Dixon (from Newgy) set up a table with one of the Newgy

robots, with Roger working the controls, and Barney demonstrated some

skills while giving an interview and gave a few introductory playing

tips to the hosts of the show Beth Haynes and Abby Ham. John Rose from

the Knoxville club provided some info regarding the tournament. You can
