We currently are only offering Open, AM1, AM2, AM3, and AM4 divisions. Our goal is create the largest payouts possible so we are trying to limit the number of divisions, but if we receive enough interested in divisions not offered we could potentially open an additional division.
Regarding payouts we will be using funny money and you will get to choose discs from our bins.
Paul was asking what you planned for payouts.. 100% means all the money that goes in is represented in some form of payout whether it's plastic, trophies or cash. Especially true of unsanctioned tournaments (no pdga fees)
Right Ben, for example if there were four Advanced Masters that paid in at $20 each (total $80), then the payouts would be something like $80 for first, or $60 for first and $20 for second, at 100% payouts. Of course there is still room for you to cover your costs, with plastic payouts where the discs are marked up....
Usually I see either 100% payouts, or that the money goes to benefit the course, charity, or a club. Just wondering what Genetic is all about...
The payouts will be 100% in all divisions for the 33% of each division. However if there are 4 masters for example at $20 each, I believe in that case 1st would take it all. Obviously cash will be paid out for open and plastic for the rest.
we have decided to add adv. masters, would you still like to register?
Yep, I'm in. Thanks Mike.
