Summer League @ Thompson 2019

[Ramsfan1]

Great news for all our area players: we will once again run the Thompson Park Summer Disc Golf League this season, beginning Thursday, July 11th. The league will run 8 weeks, and we will use the multi-day tee off option like we did last year, which was well-received and allows our players tremendous flexibility during the busy summer months. Thursday evenings from 4:30-5:30 will be the primary tee off time, but players have the option of teeing off anytime up thru Sunday with another League player. Lou Garcia must receive payment ($5) along with your score by 8:00 p.m. Sunday to have your scores count for that week.

We will operate under our usual divisional format based on scoring averages. Players must play 6 of the 8 weeks to be eligible for payout. Please contact Lou or Frank with questions about the league; we look forward to seeing you out there!

Great news! Looking forward to it. At some point can you post the updated guidelines? I believe last season there was discussion of locking in your division after x amount of rounds. Thanks again for hosting.

Hey, Tom- the guidelines are posted in the Thompson kiosk and are essentially the same with a couple of exceptions.
One, the league will be 8 weeks instead of 10; we need more of a break as we transition between the summer and the fall. Players must play 6 weeks to qualify for payout. And two, I believe the scoreboard is now set up so you are locked into your division after 6 weeks. Everything else is the same- mixed layout (also posted in the kiosk), Main league day is Thursday 4:30-5:30 p.m. with multi day tee off option thru the weekend (must Pay Pal Lou and send scores by 8;00pm Sunday, no exceptions), Contact Lou with other questions if you have them and thanks for your support and interest!

We remind all players that league payment and scores are due by 8:00 p.m. Sunday of the week you played. Both should come in together. Players are expected to meet this criteria to participate in the league. Lou has had far too many situations where he is chasing down money and dealing with people who are not paid up, making it difficult when calculating finances at the end of each week. This is neither fair nor acceptable.

We have worked hard to provide a very player-friendly summer league with multiple start options and multiple payment methods and have clearly laid out the rules for participation. Please reciprocate that opportunity by following our procedures.

Also- make sure you play the proper layout. Stroke penalties will be assessed if the wrong layout is played. We provided hard copies to all players on Thursday and a master copy is posted in the kiosk.

I apologize for the tenor of this message, but multiple instances necessitated a reminder to all. We thank those who are participating in the League for their support and hope to see everyone the next three weeks.
