Summer 2013 Schedule - PRELIM

I think of all the "joys" that come with running a not-for-profit league... schedule creation has to be the most annoying. Yes, even more annoying than weekly course booking, stats logging and handicap updating. Luckily for you guys, I actually like you.

As I said in my email this morning, we're still small enough to try and accommodate everyone. But we're at the limit of making it work.

I'm convinced the format we have to determine a season champion is almost flawless... but it's a huge detriment to miss tournaments (as it should be). And since I want someone not named Chandler to get their name on this trophy, I'm going the extra mile to make sure you guys don't miss anything.

Below is a calendar showing when guys are/aren't free. Proposed dates for tournaments are marked with "GOLF" and "MAJOR".

A few notes:

- We got a 4-week period from July 27 through August 18th where at least one person has a conflict. So since Faz has the most conflicts, I'm suggesting we just play on August 10th. He's good enough to overcome missing one tourney (I think).

- Nobody had a conflict September 21st or 22nd. Therefore we're going out of town that weekend. Put it on your calendars. This will be our final tourney, especially since prices start going up in October.

- It's impossible to NOT have a double-header. So we might as well do it the first week (June 29th and 30th). There are only nine tournaments on this schedule. We do have 3 "green" days where we can add more, but I know that's tough for you guys with wives.

- You'll see July 20th in yellow. Faz and I have a tentative kickball tourney that day. While I care more about golf than kickball, the next day is open so we might as well play Sunday. In fact... we can probably do the Hangover Invitational that day, which would be really rough for us. Drink all day at a tournament... meet out at a bar... drink with you guys until 1am. I like and hate the idea already.

- Based on this proposed schedule, everyone should make at least 8 out of 9 events. The Ryder Cup will be postponed until a later date.

Post your comments, or else I'm just going to continue to think I'm doing a fucking awesome job. The criticism went to zero once we got rid of Gorecki.
