Darren you let me know what's happening re NW?? please.

So there will be a " yorkshire/north east" and a "yorkshire" qualifier ? great, if I can make it I get 2 chances.... Who is arranging the Yorkshire qualifier ? Can I ask for it to be midweek as I don't get many weekends off. Or am I asking too much? (No harm in asking, is there?)

Just clicked on East mids. & it says you may only enter 1 qualifier? I'm assuming its a typo?

rules state "Participants can enter multiple events as a competitor up to a maximum of 3 based on 8 qualifiers (5 or less would allow maximum of 2) "

South East i'm guessing would include East Anglia in that? I'll keep an eye out on this thread r.e what course it'll be at.

Patrick yes the South East would include East Anglia but feel free to enter any event.

Adrian, typo on may part.  Confirmed is the Yorkshire/North East but hopefully there maybe an event further a field up near Newcastle which is more North/North East

John, Martin will be updating for 2010 you can enter multiple events to qualifier, the consensus on the rule change was about 60% in favour so will be tried this year with the limit in place to stop someone entering every qualifier.

Wayne, NW info to follow ASAP.

West Mids should also be coming soon, just waiting on a venue.

Regards, Darre.n

Thanks Daz appreciate your busy

I'll be entering the west midlands hoping to qualify for the final and take advantage of it being on my home course.

I didn't think there was an option in the voting for "Yes, but you can only enter so many"

I thought the conensus was you could enter as many as you wanted until you qualified & then enter as a 'friendly' after that?

John there wasn't, given the results were so close I took an executive decision to modify slightly.

Fair decision I think.

See you tmoz!

who's playing ? 

Me, you & Tim. Space for one more if you know anybody?

this could have been the 2nd match in the golfshake summer matchplay take on all comers

Any news for me on the West Mids qualifier venue Daz?
