Isabel Martinez

Isabel Martinez got her start in the NMSO in 2015 when her friend Dorothy Roybal and her husband introduced Martinez and her husband to the games. The four of them played shuffleboard. Martinez said both her and her husband learned a lot going to their first games as they never played the sport before. Though both of their husbands have passed, Martinez and Roybal continue to go to the games and play singles and doubles shuffleboard. Martinez said her favorite part of the games is the people because she gets to see her friends, gets to know new athletes and the friendly staff of the games. She said she is always happy when the games are announced.
