Are we able to sort out the groups for the first round before we get there? Will take a lot of pressure off peoples arrival times if they know what time they will be teeing off. Happy to help organise that in anyway.

Personally, I think the biggest headache will be sorting out the rooming arrangements Steve, but point taken.
I need to contact a few players to get their ages as with the substitutes coming in the teams might have changed very slightly, but will do this over the course of the coming weeks.
Once I have the definitive teams I will post them up on here, sort out my "batting order" for the Sunday four-balls and pass this on to the opposing captain via PM.
The singles pairings for Monday morning can be sorted out on the Sunday evening while we are there which will add a bit of "flavour" to the proceedings!
With everybody now having paid, things are shaping up nicely.
I'll be sending the balance over to Forest Pines within the next week or so.
Just to avoid any confusion, team colours have been decided which will require everybody to bring one BLACK shirt and one WHITE shirt.
Old Farts to wear WHITE on the SUNDAY, BLACK on the MONDAY, with the Whppersnappers doing the opposite if that's okay with everybody???

I don't think it's a lot to ask, it will make the day look and feel even better if everyone adheres to team colours, but I'll put money on there'll be at 1 knob who'll want to be different :smirk:

You old boys are brilliant, even if you do win we will wait an hour and tell you that you lost, none of you will remember anyway;)
