Strikers is a 40 lane house in Sunrise, Florida, closer to the headquarters hotel, the DoubleTree at Sawgrass Mills It is in the process of continued remodeleing and you may see the difference in 2014 although most of the renovations are not "out front" yet.
It is our pleasure to work with Michael Ducat, owner, Tom Nickol, General Manager, Darryn Auerbach, Assistant GM, Vince Kuzmiki, owner of the Pro Shop at Strikers, as well as the Striker's staff, as we plan our 2014 tournament season. Strikers is located at 8500 N.W. 44th Street, Sunrise, FL 33351
Although having only 40 lanes may mean double squads for the Tournament of The Americas, their hospitality and expertise at hosting a tournament will make up for any inconveniences there may be io the tournament schedule. We look forward to making Strikers our home for years to come. |
