The sixth Fox Valley Open took place on September 29, 2012. It attracted 70 players from Chicago area and Madison, WI. Worth noting was a group of 20 young players from La Grange, IL who literally saved this tournament from cancellation. The participants competed in 4 divisions: Juniors 12 and under, Amateur, Intermediate and Advanced. The winners took home trophies and cash prizes. Below are the results of each division.
The tournament was sponsored by Paddle Palace.
