🎱 First Experience at BCA State! 🎱
What an incredible experience competing in my very first BCA State Tournament in the Women’s Singles Silver Division!
I started the tournament with a 4–2 win over Ruby B., which gave me a lot of confidence. My next match was against Christina B., and although I came up short 4–2, I learned a lot from the experience.
The following day, I played Renee W. and lost 4–0. It was a rough match, but it taught me an important lesson: getting enough sleep is just as important as practicing. After playing all day and then coming back early the next morning, I realized how much rest can affect your focus, decision-making, and performance at the table.
I finished the tournament 9th–12th out of 22 entries, and while I always want to do better, I’m proud of how I competed in my first BCA State event. Every match was a learning opportunity, and I’m leaving with more experience, valuable lessons, and even more motivation to keep improving.
Thank you to everyone who has supported and encouraged me along the way. Your support means so much, and I can’t wait for the next tournament! 💙🎱🏆
