Sorry for posting here

[Kelly Jenkins]

Count me in.

[BridgetBohnson]

I'll be there.

Julie please post this on your facebook site. Seems like we don't even need a NEFA site nowadays. A while back someone thought it would be cool to do a team challenge type of concept where everybody would be welcomed. This was done to maintain a competitive aspect to new England's boring winter season. The concept was everyone could be involved men or women, black, white, who cares. I just had a lengthy conversation about my gf about his. I agree and disagree with her but we can both speak our minds. I really would love to see this tourney filled with females to promote the sport in which I truely love. I'm a person who has always had a strong opinon in what they feel is right and I know you do too. Would it be ok to hold 50 spots for the ladies by such and such a date and then let males maybe participate and help with the cause? Maybe the cause could be to implement new baskets at a school? I would like to help with this situation anyways I can. I would be willing to play, help, in whatever division I can.

[Erin Tivnan]

Hi Joe. I appreciate your enthusiasm about this event but this is an event Julie and I created to fill the year between the Women's Global event that is held every other year. I would appreciate only positive feedback on this thread for helping to promote this event to GROW the women's side of the sport! If you want to discuss this further please start your own thread and discuss it there. Thank you!

[Joe Yaskis]

good luck to all

[Dave Jackson]

Just to play devil's advocate. Are you really going to fill Webster with 90 ladies? How come there are no guys only tourneys? Oh yeah cause that is unfair-. Discuss

KaBooM!!!



I'm glad the ladies are having this event in the off year of the womens global event and I'd like to offer up a couple CTP's to support this event.
I'm not sure what the CTP's will be, but one will be a disc for sure. The other I'll get creative.
Thanks Hollowpoint and Green Light for making this happen.

[Dave Jackson]

Is there a person I can give the CTP's I have for this event to?

Holla!

I'm at Maple Hill everyday this week.

[Erin Tivnan]

Hi Dave,

I will work on getting someone to pick up the CTP prize from you at Maple. What time are you there until for the remainder of the week? Thanks again for your support!

[Dave Jackson]

I'm in the shop noonish till 5-5:30, Wednesday-Thursday-Friday.
I can drop the discs at someone's crib if they are in the Worcester/Leicester area.
Keep me posted.

[Dave Jackson]

Two CTP's handed off to Julie today.

Enjoy the day ladies and play well.

[Julie Ferdella]

Thank you Dave and everyone who has donated for your generosity and support of the women!

[Daniel Mack]

Say whaaaaatttt.

DMack definitely supports ladies and DG.

$50 Cash 2shot CTP hole 4 (via paypal to the winner)

[Julie Ferdella]

Lunch on your own!

[Dave Jackson]

Results?

Congrats to all the girlies who participated!!!

[Daniel Mack]

I know it was late notice, I tried to sneak it in.... I take it the CTP went unnoticed and unclaimed?

Hopefully the event was a big success.

DMack, the winner was Kelly Jenkins!

[Daniel Mack]

Nice!!! I was hoping it didn't go unnoticed!

Also...After I starting thinking about it I was worried that the hole layouts hadn't changed at all.... and that hole 4 was long enough to be still be worthy of a 2-shot CTP. Would have felt kinda silly if it had changed to a shorty.

Please have the winner PM me with Paypal details and I'll send them their winnings today, or have them PM DMack Teetee on FB.

Side note: TT is looking to recruit a competitive lady to replace the one we are losing for next year's TC season. Please spread the word if you know of any ladies that are interested in playing TC next year and are having trouble finding an open spot on a team.

Thanks!

[Erin Tivnan]

Thanks to everyone involved!

PayPal $ sent. Nj Kelly!

Thanks again to everyone that came out and supported this event last weekend!

Ladies

Today at special Olympics event
It was insane on how many women enjoyed the sport more so then in years past

These players were from shrewsbury,fithcburg,sturbridge,chicopee area

We referred them to the fb page

I don't know how or who but I would suggest clinics around the area

Seeing an epic five hole sudden death playoff end with an ace by an eager group of girls who literally played for four hours straight was the highlight of our crews day well the hugs we got after a five foot putt by an older disabled man was right up there as well

But she was super pumped and had everyone sign the disc and take pictures

Anyways next year would be nice to have a lady of dg on scene as well as our demographic is most certainly female dominated now. Nikki king and Helen Franchi have volunteered in past and was great having a female around to work on hands on technique

Well summary girls are loving dg, clinics

Cya around

[Julie Ferdella]

Thank you Titan for sending them our way!
