yeaaaaa boiiiiii.... i've filled our open roster spot (due to Greg's injury) with a player who will undoubtedly help us take the next step.. Jon Gordon will be playing the rest of the season with Crane so welcome this fine gentleman aboard boys!
Also, everyone has said that they can make it to the challenge on the 21st. Krestchy made it known to me that some people wanted to know if they were going to play or not because otherwise they wouldn't make the trip.
The most important thing for me to do as a captain (in my eyes), other than guaranteeing us the best chance to win, is to qualify as many players as possible for the finals. This is obviously a matter of logistics so if there are any emergencies or scheduling conflicts we can make sure that we still field a full roster for finals.
Mike K, Mike F and Steve M all have 2 challenges under their belts and only need to play 1 of the last 3 in order to qualify for finals. This holds true for a number of others on our team and if these guys are available they'll play more than just 1 of the last 3. Assuming Jon can make the last 3 it's very important we get him into every match because we want him qualified for finals, and because he's dirty but whatevs.
Anyway, for this upcoming challenge, with everyone being available, I think it's in our best interest as a team to let those know in advance that they do not have to join the team on the trip to amesbury if they don't want to. Mike K, Mike F and Steve M don't need to make the trip to Amesbury as we should have (pending any last second drop outs) 17 people going. Pleasant Hill will be bringing the same number (roughly) and the odd man out can play a match that won't count towards score but will still be disc golf and fun and stuff
The odd man out will also be playing either the singles or doubles round with the team counting towards score so nbd on that end... Word is bond boys.. I'm excited about the 21st sunnnnnnnnnn
