Good morning again. I wanted to write this as a second message so it didn't get lost in the players email.
This information has been posted several places, but I wanted to make sure I sent this again since this is the first event of this new series/concept. If you decide you want to adjust your division to have a chance to qualify, all you have to do is to go the event for Saturday (https://www.discgolfscene.com/tournaments/Crossovers_Frosty_Fling_8_2024), go to players tab, click edit and adjust your division.
Crossover is proud to present this year: The Crossover Local Tour Series 2024. We will call it the COLT Series for short. This will be a series of events that are just normal Crossover events for some, but qualifiers for others. We feel like we want to try to reward the PRO/advanced/upper players in the area, as well as try to grow the age protected AM groups.
For the Pro/Open players, they have a chance to qualify for the COLT Finale on 9/28. It will be a B-Tier with a minimum of $750 added cash. For the MA1/FA1 players, this gives a chance to grow this division to have something to play for as well if they qualify. And lastly, we have a large number of AM players who are Masters eligible, that stay in the other divisions. Which is fine. We hope that this will encourage them to at least give the age protected divisions a chance. For all AM's the COLT Finale will also be a B-Tier as well on 9/28.
Bottomline, we want to reward the pros who finish at the top locally, and also to help grow the MA1/FA1 and age protected AM divisions if possible. Next year, if this is a success, we could look at other divisions/options. Again, we have no clue if this will work or not. There is nothing around to compare it to for us to see what we are getting in to.
So how does one qualify? Obviously, the COLT Finale is for the cream of the crop. In each of the events that are labeled "COLT" at the end, that means for all Open divisions, MA1/FA1 and age protected AM's, if they finish in the top 20% of their division, they will be added in to the finale. You don't have to play every event that is a COLT event. Obviously the more you play, the more chances you have to qualify, and/or selfishly limit the field for the finale by finishing in the top 20% if you have already qualified.
Here are the numbers to qualify per division in each event. This represents the top 20%:
1 to 5 players qualifies 1
6 to 12 players qualifies 2
13 to 17 players qualifies 3
18 to 22 players qualifies 4
23 to 27 players qualifies 5
28 to 32 players qualifies 6
33 to 37 players qualifies 7
38 to 42 players qualifies 8
43 to 47 players qualifies 9
48 to 52 players qualifies 10
in the event of tie, players would qualify
if the chart says 2 qualify, but say there was 1st place and 2 way tie for 2nd, they’d all 3 qualify
It’s # of players not finishing position
To make sure we are clear, the divisions are:
-Open Divisions Male/Female - MPO/FPO, MP40/FP40, MP50/FP50, MP60/FP60, MP70/FP70
-MA1/FA1
-Age protected AM's - MA40/FA40, MA50/FA50, MA60/FA60, MA70/FA70
If you qualify for more than one division, you can select which you want in the finale. Also PDGA division guidelines apply. So an AM can try to qualify in MPO, and Pros under 970 rated can play AM divisions they are eligible for per PDGA chart.
These divisions will have an extra window to sign up before opened to the rest for all COLT events. There will also be a minimum of $150 added to Open divisions.
Well that's the best I have at this time. Everyone is eligible for the COLT series. It might mean playing up in MA1/FA1 to qualify, or playing age protected AM's, but everyone has a chance to qualify.
Keep throwing forward! We hope to see you out soon!
Please message me if you have any questions. Thanks again for signing up!
