Cost is $10 a week.. Let's go over the brief format of the cash.. If 10 people play that would equal $$1800, so 1st place will have 500, second 300, third 200.. This will be match-up play... But as a bonus highest scorer of each week will have a pass at the $10 weekly fee.. so minus 1180 from the 1800 and we have $620 left for a party for us at a bar and our tab has that much started...

The Trace Open in... Sorry, I know this is last minute, but I wanted to invite players over for our Trace Am tournament to be held this Sunday.

The Trace Open in October consists of only Advanced and up, so this tournament is for the other divisions.

This is one of the best courses in MS, even in the original layout and we are going to set up several of the gold course holes for the 2nd round to give players a sneak peak at the gold course for the upcoming Trace Open. (We can't play the entire gold course due to forced water carries and such that not all ams would enjoy).

Here is the tourney info:

This tournament will be restricted to amateur divisions only.

The field will be capped at 90 players.

Registration will be from 8 am to 9:30 am (or until the tournament fills)
Players meeting will be at 9:30

First round will tee off at 10 am
2nd round will start 1 hour after the last card is turned in

Awards will follow shortly after the 2nd round is finished.

Lunch will be served at the park for a small fee.

Advanced: $40
Intermediate: $30
Novice/Jrs: $20 ]]> Tournament/League/Event Info bazkitcase5 http://www.discgolfbirmingham.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2670 http://www.discgolfbirmingham.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2669&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Aug 2010 13:19:37 GMT Can someone tell me.....What is the format for the Sunday doubles and what are the prizes, if any?
