*$180.00 per player + tax
*Plus Applicable Sport and Cart Fees
*Includes: Beer and Wine; Breakfast and Lunch both tournament days, Draw Party, Hors D' Oeuvres following play, team hat and sweeps.
For this initial year - we will form the teams loosely based on geography NE, SE, Mid-West, and West. This is not necessarily based on where you were born. If you have an affinity or reason to associate with a region - go for it. For example, if you were born in the NE, attended school in the mid-west, worked 10 years in CA, and now live in SE - you might feel connected to all of them.
We have selected 4 Team Captains. This years captains are:
- NE Chris Opie
- SE Larry Griffin Jr.
- Midwest Jim Rogers
- West Todd Mavis
Each Captain will select a Vice Captain to become the 2022 Captain.
When you Sign-up, rank the team that you would like to join using your preference of 1 to 4. Our goal is to assign people to the team of their preference, however to ensure a Handicap Index balance across all teams, we may need to assign people to their second or lower preferences. Generally players will remain with their team in successive years.
Team Names and Colors will be determined by our Captains. Team attire is encouraged.
