BAGS - tournament formats and side bets

Hi All -

I started this particular post to obtain your comments regarding our tournament formats and side bets.

I will be happy to seriously consider your comments and suggestions.

I plan to continue having 4 or 5 weekend events with a best ball sweep. Gross skins will continue to be $10, while our other side bets will be $ 5 (net sweep, net skins, zero's).

I will talk with Steve Ritter about some type of competition between the MA & RI division - I was thinking about some type of ongoing stableford point competition between the two divisions at combined events.

Hi All -

I will be posting a preliminary schedule for our 2009 season within a few weeks.

Some highlights for the upcoming season (already booked) are:

Newport National - Tuesday, April 28
Valley CC - Tuesday, June 23 (we probably will not be holding an event at Segregansett in 2009
RI Division Championship will be at Triggs both days (August 15 & 16)

Other private and semi-private clubs we will visit will be Foxboro, Marlborough & Pawtucket

Most of the weekend dates will be similar to last season.

Please post your comments regarding the courses we play - any suggestions and comments are appreciated.
