A Matchplay Championship. what do you think?
If we get 32 players, there is only 5 rounds, so if we allow 2 months for individuals to organise each match, shouldnt be a problem, and would be completed by the end of the year.

Hmmm - how about have different state sections in the draw?
Qld top half,NSW bottom half.Originally Posted by amanda

I was thinking bottom quarter - since there are definitely more Qlders than NSW ppl.Originally Posted by terryand
Would we need qualifying?
Does that leave me and FG to battle out the Victorian spot?

I know I've been playing OK, Kev, but to send me to another state to avoid playing me, is a bit pathetic.Originally Posted by Onewood

just thought i'd drag this topic up again ...... sounds like a great idea, but might be a bit hard to organise
are you still keen to get this thing off the ground Blakey
should we call for a show of hands for people that would be keen to participate
As has been discussed before, Blakey is an ideas man, not a can-do man.Originally Posted by jarro
I think it would have to be separate for the individual states/areas.should we call for a show of hands for people that would be keen to participate
I'd prefer it if the rounds were social, and therefore completely matchplay, instead of combined with a stableford or other comp, so it has a real matchplay feel. But I'm not sure if that is do-able.
I'll put my hand half-way up.
I'm keen to play in the NSW portion, and IF I manage to beat anyone at all, and make it to the grand final, I might make a trip somewhere too.....but I'm 100% in for the NSW portion of the event.
Just tell me where and when, I'll being the intimidating length and match evening crappy putting stroke......

This sounds like fun - count me in - I've never played matchplay against guys (except Brad - though sometimes I think he lets me win!).
I'll be in the NSW section as well.
We can have the matchplay final on the Saturday before the Ozgolf Champs. I'm sure the NSW finalist would be happy to fly up Saturday morning, play (and beat ) the Qld finalist before joining others for the evening piss up ...

It wouldn't have to be up to one person to organise the games? We could just do up a draw (Random or otherwise) and let people organise games themselves within a certain time, and then move onto the next round.
Geez, I thought with age came knowledge...... :P :P :P

yeah thats always the problem.Originally Posted by golfer69
Dont worry about it, I have a master plan..... all will be revealed in due time.
(damn - Iain revealed the secret)
It's a good concept, but it's hard to get most players together often enough, let alone to play matchplay.
Trung bends over backwards to arrange a monthly-or-so hit, but that's as good as it gets. We just don't have enough publicly available courses in Sydney - especially coming into winter.
A round-robin type 'pool' event could have been done, but it would have to start at the beginning of summer.
I'm with stoopid, it's hard enough to organise a site-wide stroke event
Lucy Harris smart smart smart, Martin Harris dumb.
com'on G, surely you can get yourself up for a gameOriginally Posted by Iain
I will back Iain idea, It wasn't that hard to come up with. If its match play it doesn't matter how many people play on the course that day becuase you only win or lose against the other golfer.
So would this be playing true match play(no hcp) or the social version 3/4 of the difference in hcp(eg is a 4 marker plays a 16, the player on 18 gets 9 strokes). I would go for the social version with state pools with random pairings. If you start soon you could allow a month peroid for each match and still have the finials at Champs.
I got 2 words - Fireball Matchplay.
At the end of one (both) rounds at an OzGolf event, hand in the cards and rattle off a round of fireball.
Can i get a "Hell Yeah!!"

Nah! It's not the same.Originally Posted by Fishman Dan
No matchplay pressure.
