I believe you need an official handicap to take part in qualification for the final but am sure I read that those without handicaps would be encouraged to join in and play.

It will take you about 15 mins less to get to Oakmere from Cov, all things being equal. It's not as good a track as Sherwood Forest, but then again not many are in the Midlands. But I always enjoy a round there, never score very well, but I enjoy it.

To be brutally honest I'm not even sure what this is the qualifying for and I probably should have read up on it before I said anything. As I have not got an official handicap I'm happy to play if you need someone to make up the numbers as I don't think I will be troubling any leader boards, but don't want to take the space of someone with an official handicap who has their eyes on the prize.

You would be very welcome. I have room for probably 20 or so but don't anticipate reaching that number due to the great deal obtained for the Alwoodley qualifier.

OK, pencil me in and I'll stick it in my diary.

I have paid my deposit for Alwoodley but just going for a day out. I will play this as my qualifier if there are enough people.
To be honest I don't know who the qualifier thing works. I haven't been to a forum meet before and just enjoy a friendly, competitive round with good company.

Do we have a date yet?

It looks like the March option is favourite, so that will be Sunday, 22nd March. We can start at either 9.40 or 11.50 depending on preferences.

Oh bugger!
I knew this date rang a potential bell but couldn't remember what it was and I haven't kept it free

If we had enough numbers we could run 2 days on 22nd Feb and 22nd March but we would need more than have shown interest. I'm easy with either date but we'll see how things work out.

Ok Jim. I'd like to play but it's my mistake for filling the day with something else.
The annoying thing is that I thought I knew the date rang a bell, but I put it down to my mind playing tricks on me.
I hadn't wrote it down because then date wasn't fixed.
I'll keep an eye on the thread.

Guys, can we have an idea if 22nd Feb or 22nd March or either are your preference?

I'm not sure we have enough to use it as a qualifier. I think I saw it mentioned that 10 was needed as a minimum. Maybe Val could comment?
After all, it has to fund 2 people's green fees for the final.
Happy to play as a normal meet if that's the case.

I can play on either date.
I think Fish knows what it is all about, and on the Midlands thread he indicates that 10 are needed for a qualifier with one person to progress, for two to progress 30 people are needed. I am happy just to turn up and have a game even if we don't get 10.

Gary, realistically we need 8 at every regional to cover the winners green fee at Hillside. I'm in contact currently with all the regional organisers for input so it's a bit of a fluid situation currently so not set in stone just yet.

Ok, thanks for replying :thup:

I would hope that we can reach the minimum number of 8 even if, as happened with qualifiers last year, we have to split it over 2 days. There must be more forummers in this area who will give it a shot.

At the risk of golf snobbery, I'm more inclined to spend a bit more and travel a bit further with the opportunity to play Alwoodley.
