My point with the weather was this was something Hobbit did off his own back, I suggested piggy backing the NE v Yorks on the back of it as me and Dave (2blue) had struggled to get the match played last year.
It's quite possible none of us will even play if the weather turns.
So imo if we want to do the NE v Yorks properly we should hold it when the weather should be OK and organise it properly (May to Aug) decide the format before we ask who's available and try and make it a proper day out, even over 36 holes if the deal is good enough.
Matchplay could see people getting beat early and having nothing to play for over the closing holes. Playing the match out to possibly negate a 6&5 loss to 1 down is an option but it's not ideal.
The last group will be going off after 11:30 and potentially finishing in dimming light.
If we play stableford better ball and insist players pick up when they can't contribute on a hole we stand a far better chance of getting everyone around in daylight.
I prefer matchplay but not with limited time/light.
Therefore it's stableford.

BBC long range forecast had cold snap to return at end of month.
Plus I'm sure you didn't fancy that journey to walk off on the 10th after winning your match 10 & 8 :whoo:

Paul's right..... this is Hobbits get together but as a load of NE'ers showed interest it became possible to make a side-show of NE v Yorkshire match, thank's to Brian's agreeing.... but its not a take-over.
This will be, after all, the 3rd time its been hosted by Yorkshire & the other one was organized by Brian as well.
The above explains it clearly

Kindle of lol, so it's just team Stapleford? Can't be a singles prize if u r partner is in for 2 and you've got a putt for 1 point and picking up.

Unless of course as we had the idea it's our home fixture, even more so the fact you kicked Redcar out of Yorkshire years ago, it's your turn next

Easy way to keep everybody involved
Everything holed out
Everything counts
Singles stableford for sweep purposes
Teams in pairs ( Ne - v - Y )
2 - v - 2 for 1 point per match
A) betterball (points) of the pair , pair with highest stableford points in their 4-ball team match up, takes a point for the team
B) combined stableford points from within each pair, again, pair v pair, highest takes a point for the team
Everybody involved
No pick ups ....... Unless you can't score any stableford points
No concessions
Still able to incorporate a singles meet and team match too

OK,ok,ok....so an adopted NE'er had an idea...... :smirk:Unless of course as we had the idea it's our home fixture, even more so the fact you kicked Redcar out of Yorkshire years ago, it's your turn next
Anyway.... I think it was Stockton that thought it could jump the Tees to where the pubs were open longer
As a young'an in Bishop, used to do it most weekends.

Yes....but those feet
Must have something to do with breathing in that smog and orange dust from down that way
