Daphne, Ala. – Break out those ping-pong paddles for an exciting event coming to Christ the King in Daphne this week.  CTK will host a ping-pong tournament to benefit our Archdiocesan seminarians on Friday, August 9th. This event promises a fun evening and family-friendly event for all.  

The “Pongathon” will take place at Christ the King’s Gym (1503 Main Street, Daphne) with doors opening at 5:30 pm.  The tournament will offer two divisions of play:  singles and doubles, with proceeds benefiting the education fund for our Archdiocese of Mobile seminarians. 

The tournament fee is $20 per person and includes the entry fee, t-shirt and dinner.  Anyone age 12 and older is eligible to play and may register online at www.ctkpongathon.eventbrite.com through 1:30 p.m. on August 9^th.    Registrations will also be accepted at the door until 6:00 p.m. on the day of the tournament.  There are cash prizes for the tournament division winners:  $100 for singles and $150 for doubles.

Don’t play ping-pong?  You can still come out and enjoy the event while supporting our seminarians!  Cheer them on as a VIP Spectator for a $15 donation, which includes an event t-shirt and dinner.  All spectators are welcome at no charge and dinners may be purchased for $5. 

VIP Spectators may register online as well, or by mailing/delivering their donation and t-shirt size to the parish office.
