The "OTHER" awards from Canadian nationals 2012

So it was just over a week ago that pickleballers from all over North America descended on the city in the country of Abbotsford, for the first ever Canadian Nationals 2012. Sure there were lots of awards for best mens, ladies, mixed doubles, and even singles play, and I applaud everyone of the winners, and even those that just participated in this grand event. But what were some of the other highlights, or awards of mention that didn't get a medal from that weekend?
 I was there, and this is my list of deserving people(s). 

**Best diving/roll shot return in a singles game: Chris Miller's return shot to Billy Jacobsen in the Gold medal game of Men's open singles. Chris dove to the outer edge of the baseline corner for a shot (looked like a hard crash), hit the ball in the midst of a roll, rolled onto his feet for a speed shot to the kitchen, and then a smash to the opposite corner! Chris would take that hard fought point, but would end up losing the game and gold medal to Billy Jacobsen.
**Best team community: The pickleball club from Nanaimo all wore matching red athletic shirts, and would make it a habit to support each other as cheerleaders. It seemed that there were always a minimum 5 Nanaimo cheerleaders supporting their fellow harbour city picklers.
**Most camera clicks/minute: Ed Burke, cameraman for Pickleball Canada, who reportedly filled 2 16G memory cards in an afternoon.
**Best community winners: I've got to hand it to the pickleballers from Kelowna and the Okanogan. They are always strong, and very formidable opponents. Talking with some Okanogan picklers who said they play almost daily outside, and regularly clinic each other so as to improve their skiils.
**Biggest OOPS moment: Abbotsford mayor Bruce Banman, who credited Canada as the birthplace of Pickleball.
**Best scorekeeping with a marker: Pickleball Canada past president Bill Canning. Nothing got between Bill with his black marker, and the scoreboard. Thanks Bill.
**Lost track of time award: Linda Evans, who didn't show up for her assigned ladies doubles time slot. Overheard as she entered, "I was admiring the yummy raspberries and strawberries Abbotsford is famous for. She later went on to win.............the 50/50 pot$$.
**Furthest Canadian participants: Ontario
**Furthest American participants:Texas
**Hours of behind the scene award: Dave & Shirley Shepherd (tournament directors) They helped facilitate a pretty respectable high class pickleball tournament, and were tirelessy working early in the morning and late at night in the months, weeks, days, even hours before the tournament.
