DPT Golf Club - Rebranding Initiative

I've felt for awhile we were long overdue to re-brand / re-name the Club, but I've been working on too many other things related to keeping us running smoothly to really push for a change. Not that "Dudes Playing Together," "Double Pitcher Tour," "Dues Paid un-Timely," etc etc hasn't served us well. Truth is, we only exist because of the poorly-aged joke that started in a 2009 kickball blog.

Almost a decade later, it's just a footnote of how we formed, and no longer relatable to new members or the outside world. We need something more generic, that Tall Mike can drunkenly discuss with every random old man he meets at the bar.

The DPT Cup isn't going anywhere. Old obscure trophies shrouded in mystery are always going to be in-style.

But for the foreseeable future, you can use this link to submit Club name suggestions. It'll also be located on the right side of the blog under the Club Dues accounting sheet. It's completely anonymous, and you can submit as many suggestions as you'd like (one at a time).

Eventually I'll check out the list... remove all the bullshit (veto power!)... and we can do a league-wide vote to see if anything stands out as decent and widely accepted.
