So we will be rolling out something new starting in February. We will be giving individual players or Country Clubs the ability to sponsor a tournament on our weekly and monthly rotation. What this means is clubs can use this as a way to draw new members by hitting a wider audience that may not come to the forums.
The sponsor fee will include the ability to select a weekly or monthly tournament, a description of your club or about yourself, choice of course, choice of game settings, and choice of payout format.
Example - The WGTdbloshoe Tournament
Weekly
Bandon dunes - Back Tees, moderate wind, 13.5 green speed. Payout to top 10.
We would then build this tournament to start on the next week or month. We would remove the fee from a single player or multiple depending on what was wanted.
Another option we will be offering, we have done before but on a small scale. We have manually entered players into a special tournament. Usually this was done for high stakes games, we are now opening this option up to any clubs that want to challenge another club, or maybe a group of friends who aren't in the same club but want to play against each other in a tournament. Again whoever sponsors this will be able to choose course and conditions as well as payout options. The fee again will be taken from a single player or from multiple.
To start this will be done exclusively through the forums. We are going to limit it to 3 tournaments a week and 5 monthly. For the second option we are going to limit it to 5 a month to start. If the demand is high enough we will expand it. Feedback is welcome and if you are interested you can contact me privately.
We are trying to do two things here, give clubs a new way to recruit as well as giving players a new way of highlighting friends or themselves.
