GM King Of Kings Competition 2014

(as long as there is a call for it and it doesn't detract numbers from any other region)

Sorry but with that proviso I am stuffed ! No idea if it will or it won't, so best if I let others arrange their events.

I did actually offer, but I thought someone was already arranging a South East area. Not sure where they are planning to play, so didn't want to tread on any toes.

Mashley and IIRC chart hills was mentioned.

the vast majority of people playing in this wont be making the final. can we all just enjoy this for what it is. a game of golf with a £10 entry fee with the prospect of representing your local area and winning the title of KING of KINGS!


who cares when its played , similar conditions for us all ne:

Exactly, and on many courses it will be cheaper in March anyway, so makes perfect sense to me.

The majority of time it is sunny by then anyway, it's not like weve suggested the height of winter! March will be fine, people should stop fretting and relax. It will all work out.

These are the current areas with organisers in England.

Personally think there could be two more put in where I've put the black spots

I did suggest an East Anglian region in the original thread but didn't get a single response so assumed that there wasn't any interest.

Mikee, Rooter - I'm going to the Southwest one. I'm assuming you are both Newbury way? Not much of a detour for me to go A34, M4 instead of A303. Happy to pick you guys up. Three bags and trolleys might take a little imaginative packing, but doable I'd imagine. Post in here or the SW thread if you are up for it.:fore:

You can come to Woodhall Spa if you want. Over an hour just but I will be surprised if you are disappointed!

Phil, I get it. You don't like the time of year chosen. I get it. You've said it on this thread many times. You've even ventured on to the Scotland thread (where the regional match is being played 425 miles from your hometown) to tell everyone that you're not happy with the time chosen.

Now, a swift move on to showing your disdain that no one has volunteered close to your hometown. Do you see the ridiculousness of this?

You have added nothing positive to this thread or this competition. Expressing your opinion is one thing. Prattling on like a child is another.

This thread is for queries about a competition that I and others are taking time out to organise for the first time. We'll get some things right. We'll get many things wrong. But we will learn from this year and hopefully you'll be in a better position to volunteer as a regional co-ordinator next year, given that the photographer, cake and dresses will all be booked by then.

In the meantime, let's keep the thread on topic. There's plenty of room in The Lounge for an exclusively critical thread.

Failing that, we can take this to PM or feel free to call me. At least then others will be spared from reading your 'constructive criticism'.

virtuocity, that is the nicest and politest way of saying ''shut up we're all fed up of your moaning''
respect brother

Someone asked the question earlier in the thread about handicap certificates, I think it got lost in a barrage of other discussions.

I would like to enter but having only recently started playing again I don't yet have an official handicap, what's the official position on this please?
