About this tournament
Tiered entry fees - I’ve always heard to “Get in where you fit in.”
We want the Fly Guy NC Am Tour to encourage fair and equitable competition, and encourage a wide skill set of Amateur players to participate.
We also want to have a model that encourages one to move up when they feel ready for greater rewards.
One way we set out to do this is through a tiered entry fee.
Novice Divisions will be the lowest cost to enter - most tour stops for a mere $20 - but will be player pack and 1st place trophy only.
Competitive Jr divisions and both Rec Divisions will see a slightly increased entry fee and will be player pack and small payout to 50% of the field.
As divisions increase, so do entries, and so do winnings.
Intermediate will see the field payout drop to 45%.
Advanced divisions will have the richest per player winning margin, and pay at 45% of the field.
The current plan is for 2 rounds. The Tee assignments will be updated as the event approaches. For this course, there will be 9 temp baskets added to the 9 permanent ones on the course for a full 18 hole course.
Of course, local regulations pertaining to gathering and Covid may force the events to be modified.
