IN CLOSING - This is a players league and a fantastic tournament series with tremendous cash prizes, superb air bunkers, awesome turf, great reffing, teams have the option of walking the fields the day before, and a really great time is had by all. Now moving to the most popular format should increase the action event more. See ya there! Oh, there is a gentleman's bet that some leagues will set their dates a week or two ahead of the WCPPL. So when you see it happen, you saw it here first and send me a PM letting me know.
Items that are marked final are set while those that are labeled subject to change are well... subject to change. Stand by!
With Respect and Honor…
