As for last year, all games will be contested on a 'one-on-one' knockout basis, giving everyone 4 rounds over the course of the 2 days & at the end acompletely useless BDGA matchplay rank. Due to the ridiculous British tradition of daylight-saving, play will start early both days - so we would like everyone to be there at 9.00 am Saturday morning ready for 9.30. We will try to stagger the starts but will probably have 4 groups begin on the 1st hole & 4 on the 9th. Running alongside the main event will also be the second BDGA fantasy event- leave this to your imagination. For the players-Please be there 9.00 am latest as you will bugger up the event for everyone if there is a delay. By the same token, it is important you let me know as far ahead as possible if you think you may not be able to come- although at time of writing, all 16 players had confirmed their slot. These are the lucky 16- ( in no particular order) Bud Ivan 'nice fleece'Bromage Bud Light Oz Freire Son of Bud Derek Robbins BOF Si Luard Lindsey Parkin Toy Lucey Rob Scott Charlie Mead Wacky Wakeford Steve Parker Rich Sampson Jim Edwards Although the field for the main tournament is restricted, all players are welcome to watch- last year a second matchplay event was run alongside the main event with the same likely to happen this time. The format is much friendlier to potential golfers who find the 4-round format too much- so novices are welcome. For more details call Andy Lucey (01712204861) or Oz Freire (01818750907).
