May I briefly come back to suggest something? If there is more than one person willing to help with the organising, maybe the only way of keeping all the things you had last year would be to have one person in charge of each department. For example, one person in charge of "The Weekly Ryder" or something similar, another in charge of raising funds and organising the Ryder Cup Betting Center, another in charge of keeping track of the qualifying process and the election of Captains, another in charge of getting all the matches played when the time comes, and another in charge of broadcasting.
And, with that, my last bit of advice, which you may of course choose to ignore as I am no longer the organiser of this tournament :)
