  As this draws to a close a huge thanks to all who played, and helped make this what it was to us.  Even early on it was already twice the audience a weekly 18 holes gets, just astonishing.

  Welcome to all the so many new Stoners.    

  We went from a club seen probably as for Ls / TLs to a 20%++ bigger club now truly playing in the Ms / TMs arena too, which was where we recently decided we wanted to be.  

  As said earlier we never turn away real talent either, same as any club that would be nuts, and great to pick up yet another accomplished TL too. 

  Many of our accomplished Ls / TLs came through the ranks in the club, and we look forward to providing those new good people a great experience by helping them achieve whatever their expectation is.   Just fun in a busy club or really improving game play is all fine with us.

  Thanks all:)

  I did ask earlier but it wasn't answered. Who and how do u the sponsoring club pay up the 3K to WGT.

  Is it encumbent upon the owner or are all the members contributing. What is the process because it isn't possible for mere members to transfer credits.

  Sorry to be so dumb, but it is a serious question.

  Fair ? and not one I can help with as we were fortunate and thankful to be on the free pilot scheme.

  I think Shoe said he can take the cost of several members as decided by the CC, BUT WGT need to confirm that and hopefully will for you.

  In all honesty though taking it off several members I can see getting cumbersome, and time consuming for any organiser as well as maybe WGT.  Kind of has organising a sea fishing trip ring to it IMHO.  Unless you know the people real well everyone says yes to great the idea.  Come the actual day though only a few turn up, and only one person left holding the can for that balance if not careful.

  Maybe the bank could have different accounts for how payments are used, and so just this fund or that fund..............Tough one.

  All I know, and leave it to WGT to answer you more exactly.  

  Rip roaring success though as say, and as anyone can see.

  Send a PM to Shoe.  Giving a short description of the CC, plus the course, tees, tee markers, etc. where you wish to set up the tournament.

  The cost is 3k,  which Shoe will deduct from your account.

  Bridgestone had such a success with this,  that I felt it only fair to sponsor one with real credits for another CC.

  U want to sponsor Cosa Nostra ?

  If so u should talk to YankeeJim or Jlucky3333, I am just a new boy in that club, and I don't know the history as well as they do.

  We've let slip too many good players recently, and the club needs an injection of fresh blood. No offence mean't to anyone in CN.

  Never thought of that Jim....simple ideas are the best !

  Opens up the comp sponsoring to even the smallest clubs..

  Wouldn't take that much longer to take $5 off 6 members....suppose it could get to be a pain if 30 members wanted to pay a $1 each ;-)))

  "Rip roaring"?..lol. Ya think? 

  $30.00 to bring in a few members? 

  This is definitely a feature where some will think paying WGT $30 / a couple sleeve of gb's in some peoples world, is WORTH the investment. 

  Others, me being one of them, see this feature for what it is.
