Bid Euchre qualifying tournament May 2025
A big thank you to all the participants and to Victoria Rode at the Ingersoll Senior Centre for hosting a very successful Bid Euchre tournament for district 31. Special thanks to the volunteers who helped out today.
Congrats to our winners from district 31 Donna MacLeod and Linda Cyr. Also congrats to Don Carder and Carolyn Coaker from district 30 for joining us and also qualifying for the summer provincial games.
Good Luck in Sudbury !!
Silver at Quebec
Slo-pitch is our specialty here in D31. This past summer, we won Gold in the Ontario 55+ Summer Games in Brantford, qualifying us to represent Ontario in the Canada 55+ Games in Quebec City.
The competition is competitive co-ed. We were undefeated in the round-robin, playing teams from B.C, Quebec and Ontario.
We then crossed over and played British Columbia in the semi-finals. A close win took us to the finals. We faced a strong team from Winnipeg and fell behind at the top of the seventh. It was a great game, and proud to be bringing home a silver medal !

A big thanks to our sponsors and all the volunteers that made this event successful.
Welcome to District 31
District 31 - Oxford/Elgin counties
We are pleased to be part of the Ontario Senior Games Association, providing sports and social games for all residents aged 55+. OSGA has been around since 1985. Our district was active up until Covid, but now we are back.
We have been rebuilding slowly over the past 2 years.
There are about 20 events in the summer and 10 in the winter. More information is available on the OSGA homepage under RULES.
Our district will focus on holding as many events as we can in Summer 2025, in order to qualify for the Ontario 55+ Summer Games in Sudbury on Aug 5-7.
In order to make this happen, we'll need help. We are seeking volunteers to help us get up and running.
If you are interested in being part of this adventure, please contact us. Events can be held anywhere in the 2 counties. We just need a sponsoring venue and a willing convener to put an event on the calendar.

The calendar of events will posted around Mar 1st.
Events will also be held in neighboring districts, and by mutual agreement, our members can be allowed to compete there as well. But we would like to hold a few events in our own area if possible.
