FARF9876: Is your firsthosting tournament better than 2nd ?
First tournament had 10people and cash prizes whereas the second tournament had a higher cash prize, 4sponsors, and plenty o' food was cooked and handed out during lunch break andafter the tournament was over
FARF9876: What will you dobetter if you host the tournament next time ?
As always, more sponsorsare needed. I would not mind adifferent location with a campground for the next tournament on May 4, 2002. - let us not forget something - i made one boo-boo i hope that future tournaments will not make - i had 2 "steve's" playin in the tournament - the last names were not included - i mixed up the scores - hence 6th place was awarded to wrong Steve. PLS!! PLEASE!!! use last name only to make it better for future tournaments!!
FARF9876: Do you like theidea of hosting and playing at the same time?
If all bases are coveredand my assistants can cover their own I do not mind playing and hosting atthe same time but make sure hosting the tournament is priority
FARF9876: How many peopleplayed there ? 20
FARF9876: How many peopleplayed there last year? 10
FARF9876: What was the mostcommon excuses they made for not showing up ?
Several GallaudetUniversity students said they could not attend disc golf tournament eventbecause they have a "conflict" of some unknown cause. The least they could have done was be honestand tell me what they had to do instead of hiding the truth. i know many good disc golf players from gallaudet but they would not show up because they will not support any events sponsored by my Eta Eta Chapter of Delta Sigma Phi Fraternity. Let the record be known that 2 from Alpha Sigma Pi showed up and 0 from Kappa Gamma showed up - Whatever happened to Greek Unity?
FARF9876: How many playersdid you assume for showing up for your tournament ?
Heck, anything better than10 is a success in fact, it doubled from 10 to 20!
FARF9876: Do you have anyplan or heard any plan for next tournament nearby at your area inMD/VA/DC?
