So I'm the mountain region tournament director for the Vibram Players Cup. Here's my idea: Hold a regional qualifier at Badland's on September 18th (Badland's offers a great mix of holes and 3 'natural' 9 hole 'courses' for match play). If I get 24 people, i charge $50/ea to cover the $1,200 I need to come up with to give to the Players Cup (all regions are required to pitch in $1,200.) I'm thinking of doing a silent auction too, and see if I can get more than 24 people so whoever qualifies (top 3 finishers) I'll have a little extra $ to help those players get to the event.
There is no immediate payout...so I'm sure that'll deter some people but all you have to do is win a few 9 hole matches and you're on your way hopefully with a little extra ca$h in your pocket. First place down in FL is $5k! What kind of interest is there out there??? If I get just 36 players, and only charge $40...that instantly gives each qualifier $80 to help get them there...
