15th Anniversary Tournament at Matt’s in CT Coming Soon
February 9, 2025: Matt DiDominzio has set the dates for his next big tournament – April 25-26th – a Friday night and a Saturday all day event in Berlin, Connecticut.
The dates coincide with the dates he first opened a privately owned cancha he opened in a warehouse building 15 years ago.
The first amateur court to open in the state of Connecticut since Milford opened one in the late 70s, has been a big success for all those former pro players and amateurs that live in New England. The court offers to truest form of jai-alai as compared to a pro court.
The 15-year history is a story in itself. Many were spectacle of its success as rent of large warehouses are not cheap – especially in Connecticut. Professional jai-alai in Harford, Bridgeport, Newport, and Milford has been gone for more than two decades now as casinos and the lottery now rule the land. At one point, Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun (less an hour away from Matt’s court) were the two largest casinos in the world.
As it stands, Matt’s tournament is looking a holding a singles event on Friday (April 25) and a Doubles event on Saturday (April 26). However, this is not final. There will be Quinellas Style play – with changing partners.
Contact Matt in Connecticut to sign up. Playing time and fees vary depending on package you want.
For Friday only or Saturday only event the fee is $25 or $50 for both.
