    Regarding donations.

    It will be done on trust. Donations should be made afterwards, by participating players (and anyone else that may want to) to the charity choice of the winning teams charity to be determined by their Captain.

    I will captain "TEAM SOUTH" and my chosen charity will be SHELTER via my brother's just giving page.

    I would like to make a suggestion that perhaps @MAXALLY is captain for the North, but you should decide amongst yourselves.

    So for clarification, please DO NOT make any donations until after the event has taken place.

    @MAXALLY if you accept my challenge of pitting your wits against me in the "selection" process, pairings etc, please post here with your chosen charity.

    Cheers,

    G

    Challenge accepted. If no one objects, I will proudly captain the NORTH.

    Chosen Charity will be Cancer Research UK.

    @Tikay10 @NChanning We need you guys!

    Hi Graham,

    If you are short of numbers, I'll play, & I'd be happy to play for whatever side most needs the entries.

    Happy to step aside if you get a full complement.

    Well done on organising this again.
  • StayOrGoStayOrGo Member Posts: 12,169
    Great stuff guys.

    I will round up all the entries we have had so far.

    What would be awesome, and I never thought possible before, would be to do a "Proper" Ryder Cup, with 12 players per team.

    So we'll see how things go. Entries wise

    It will take a bit of organising, so it won't be something we'd be able to do all in one day. So perhaps the foursomes, fourballs can be played over a "small period" of time.

    Then "as much as it possible" we can get most of the singles matches happening on the last day so that it should provide an exciting climax to the competition.

    For those unaware of the format, I am hoping all will become clear as we progress.

    Thanks again for all the support!
