In an effort to get information to the members TJ Cope has developed a website with information about past and future tournaments. Log on if you have internet and check it out. We will try to use more of this in the year 2003. The web page site is: MAGA.TJCOPE.NET
Anyone who has chosen the internet option will not receive anymore paper material from MAGA. All information is located on the above website. Anything that has a line under the heading can be printed.
The next tournament will be held at Shaker Run. This will be the most expensive of all our tournaments during the year. The cost for this tournament will be $57. Included in this price will be golf, cart, range balls and tournament prize fund. The GPS System tells you the yardage you have left from your ball location to the pin.
The date of this tournament will be April 18th with tee times starting at 8:30 AM. The format of this tourney is a 4 MAN 6/6/6 BEST BALL. Sign up as a twosome or foursomes. Like all our remaining tourneys full handicap will be used. If new players have not yet established a handicap by tournament time, I will figure it. Scores must be posted at your respective courses.
For the new members there are optional side pots that consist of: $5 Low Gross $5 Low Net $5 Skins
These side jackpots can be sent in with your entry fee if you know that you are going to get into them. This will help free up time for the people running the tournament to also hit some balls. All players should check in at the table or designated location so the tournament committee knows they are at the course and also to see if they are interested in getting into the side jackpots.
The deadline for the Shaker tournament will be Thursday April 8th. This date is a little quick notice but the course must know how many players we are going to have by Friday morning. So let me know if you plan on playing so Shaker will hold enough tee times for our group. This deadline is quick and we need to know the number of players early.
We had 9 new players that played in the first tournament of the year. I hope we continue to recruit new players for MAGA.
One of our major problems in MAGA is the lateness of getting in your entry on time. We want everybody to play but we are going to start adhering to our deadlines and not giving in to add late players. This means that entries must be received before the deadline. If you call and let someone know you are going to play is one thing but you need to mail your money in on time. Dont get shut out if you want to play. |
