Fun-N-Sun RV Resort, located in San Benito, will host the 40th Shuffleboard World Championships, which will be held in 2021 from Oct. 17 through Oct. 22. Previous tournaments were held in countries around the world such as Austria, Brazil, and Canada. The proposal to have Fun-N-Sun Resort host the tournament was led by Ann and Evan Engell, who are also residents at the resort. Alana Hernandez, writer for The Monitor, relays in her article "As chairpersons for the championship, Evan will be in charge of the shuffleboard tournament and Ann will oversee items such as transportation, food, lodging and entertainment." The tournament will have about 130 competitors and will have around an additional 50 to 60 people that travel with them. The resort has 16 indoor shuffleboard courts, the only indoor courts in the Rio Grande Valley.
