The club challenge has been moved to March 27th to avoid falling on the same day as a local tournament.

Tom should be sending this out shortly, but since there was an inquiry here:
Challenge Scoring
A team will get points equal to the place that their players finish (even if tied). Ties will consume places (ie. if there is a two way tie for 1st, the next place finisher is 3rd). Only the top N players will count for their team score. The next 3 finishing players on a team will consume finishing places (i.e. bump down the place finish for other players), but not count towards the team score. If a team has an insufficient number of players, they will be awarded points for a last place finish for those missing players.
Each round will be scored independently.
Since we have two divisions, the scores for each division will be tallied separately and then combined. Since we want the results of the upper division to have a larger affect on the outcome. The total for the lower division will be multiplied by a normalization factor. This normalization factor is determined based on the number of players counting and will be set so that the upper division compared to the lower division is around a 5:4 ratio. This is along the lines of the point factor difference used by the PDGA.

The DISContinuum Club Challenge will be hosted by GRABM on March 27, 2011. It would be a great opportunity to showcase one of the finest courses in the Midwest.
There are limited garbage cans on the courses so please bring bags with you when you play pick up rounds to help clean up the course.
We are planning to move some of the east course baskets on or after March 13 & the west course baskets on or after March 20. We decided at the club meeting to change a few holes for safety and/or added difficulty for the Club Challenge.
Anyone interested in playing for GRABM in the Club Challenge (must be current GRABM member) can contact Bear at 815-275-4308.

Just so everyone knows Bear meant anyone interested in playing for the GRABM team in the event must be a current GRABM member. Other players must be a current member of one of the other clubs participating.

I will have a check in area for GRABM members the day of the Club Challenge. The league sheet will be our roster with some names added for those just coming out of hibernation. I will modify the list as needed.

There will be a mando on #5 west due to the added length of the temporary hole. This will keep players from throwing into fairway #3. Safety first.

Looks like Discontinuum has 10 players so far, Fox Valley has 16, and Streamwood has 12. From what I here is GRABM has way more than all these teams. Is there any way of making a Roster list besides the league sheet?
