Before I announce the Player of the Year awards, I want to recognize something just as important—the people who help keep this community moving forward here at

The Director’s Dinky Awards are for those whose efforts don’t always show up on a scoreboard. The people who step up, help out, welcome others, fix things when they break, support events, and bring positive energy day in and day out.

I’m fortunate enough to see everyone—not just wins and losses, but the time, care, and heart that so many of you give without expecting recognition. For the 2025 season, I wanted to make sure that didn’t go unnoticed.

This is simply my way of saying thank you. Congratulations to our Director’s Dinky Award recipients.

MLP at NFC – New League Announcement

With the success of MLP at NFC 17, we’re excited to announce MLP at NFC 15.
This league will run Thursday nights at 7:00 PM, starting January 22nd.

Teams will ideally consist of two men and two women, with a minimum of four teams. Each team must have a combined DUPR rating of 15 or less.

Don’t have a DUPR rating? No problem — I can assess you, or you can easily get one by attending a DUPR night at NFC.

From now until January 22nd, we’ll also be hosting MLP Mixers on Thursday nights so players can meet, play together, and form teams organically.

If you’re interested in being a potential captain and can put a team together, DM me and I’ll send you a team signup list.

More details coming soon.

Hi NFC Family,

Due to the snow and current road conditions, Norwich Fitness Center will have a delayed opening today at 8:15 AM to allow for safer travel and proper snow removal.

We will be canceling our morning classes but both the Front gym and CrossFit will be open along with our pickleball courts for members and drop-ins.

Your safety always comes first. Please take your time this morning, drive carefully, and do not feel pressured to be on the roads if conditions are not safe where you are.

We appreciate your understanding and patience, and we look forward to seeing you later today once conditions improve.

Stay safe and warm,

Norwich Fitness Center Team
