The Confirm List for the Find Your Swing event has been updated. This is a 4-person team event. Look at the list to see if there are any singles, 2-somes, or 3-somes that you would like to partner with. Send an email to Joe Lerch or Frank McLaughlin and we will try to pair you up. I will start pairing up teams on 28 March in order to start loading the roster into our Tournament Manager software.
The Wait Lists for Ryder Cup, Pick Your Partner, and Best Ball have been updated with current signups. I have also updated all Wait Lists with a new color code scheme to help eliminate any questions I have received about if a partner on the wait list is also on the confirmed list.
Same note on pairing up teams. If you see a team that is not full and you want to pair with them, send me or Frank an email and we will try to pair you up.
