I second that!

Way to represent, Pat! Lets work together to double the number of teams next year. Between EMU, WMU, and FSU, I like our chances of bringing a National Championship back to Michigan!

Uh-oh, whats that name I see on the list?

A classic "bait and switch."

Teams having more than 4 players are encouraged to bring more! Odd players will still get to compete for prizes and gain experience competing in this format! Besides.....this is one of the sweetest courses in the country and the weather will be ideal!

In the afternoon at BG on Sat and the morning at Oshtemo, teams will play singles. Each team will count only the three best singles scores. Therefore, a team having only three players for the singles rounds could compete.

FORMAT: Teams will play doubles in the morning. The format pits two college teams against each other in alternate-shot.
Each team will decide which two players will tee from even holes, and which from odd on the 24 hole course. Then alternate from there. This format allows for a team of two or three to represent their school in the dubs.

I am assuming $120 for the team?

Yes. Or, $30 per person should you bring a team comprised of less than 4 players.

Q .    September 3, 2013 at 5:54am

how many team members need to play 2 3 or 4.

We have two berths to award. Good thing is, because FSU qualified with a strong finish, the two berths will go to two other teams-- which will definitely improve your odds.

Leonard Johnson   September 4, 2013 at 5:45pm

Let me clarify. FSU qualified with a strong finish at the 2013 Nats.

Leonard Johnson   September 10, 2013 at 10:05am

While a team can compete with two players in the doubles because of the team alternate shot format, you will really need at least 3 for the singles.....The teams with 4 will just take the best 3 scores....So, you'll really need 3 to be competitive in the singles rounds.

Joe said u might do a side tourney .... ?

Leonard Johnson   August 14, 2013 at 6:17pm

Yep. Probably match play or dubs.....to tee off after the college teams....while they play 24, we'd play 18

christopher rogalewski   August 15, 2013 at 11:32am

Thank you so much sounds awesome .....

Leonard Johnson   August 15, 2013 at 5:11pm
