THREE PERSON TEAM TOURNAMENT

APRIL 16-17, 2007

Melbourne, Florida

 

  A major change to this tournament was voted on and approved at the Club Officers/Executive Council meeting held in Clearwater in April of 2005 and re-confirmed at the Club Officers/Executive Council meeting in April of 2006 at Beverly Hills.  The motion was “Individuals enter the tournament and the teams will then be selected by computer to make the teams as equal as possible from all the entries”.  The assumption is that teams can be made equal from the individual entries received.  The Executive Council will decide on the method used to equalize the teams.

  The pitching format of the tournament will be:

1.  Classes will consist of six 3 person teams.

2. Team members will pitch one game against each of the three members on the other five teams for a total of 15 games. 

3. Individuals will pitch eight 40 shoe non handicapped cancellation games on Monday and seven games on Tuesday.  Tied games, at the end of 40 shoes, remain as a tie, each player given ½ point..

4. Final team position will be determined on total team games won and lost in their class.  The ranking of tied positions in class will be determined by total team ringer percentage.

5. Tournament committee may schedule a “pacer” team to fill out the six team class or “bye games” may be scheduled.

6.  Entry deadline is April 9, 2007.

7.  Entries will be scheduled on a first come basis.  Entrants not scheduled will receive refunds and notification that they were not scheduled to pitch.
