Rossland's Finest Turn-up for a Sunday Shoot out

Thin Air Frolf Club, Rossland, BC - In a wild afternoon, the four person team of Tucker, Tanner, Devon and H shot a tournament best 5 under par to capture the 1st annual Ross-Vegas Best Disc Frolf Tournament and a 60 dollar top prize.

The event started at 11am Rossland time, with a rules and registration meeting to kick off the event. Six, three and four person teams began with a shotgun start moving around the 18 hole course in a little over 2 hours. Teams were only able to use 6 drives from anyone player limiting the premier players from dominating the tourney. This didn't seem to phase the winning team who evenly distributed their pin point drives across their squad. Newcomer Devon, proved to be a real asset to the victorious group showing that there might be a little competition for Peach in Rossland after all. The team made up of Chantelle, OB, Brian (Nelson) and Trevor shot a slick 4 under par and secured second position with a 45 dollar payout. In what proved to be an exciting tournament moment, 2 teams played a 5 hole sudden death playoff to determine 3rd place. The 2 groups played even frolf for 4 holes with Chunk blowing a par saving putt to give Rawsthorne, Corinna, Jamie and Brendan the final position in the top three and a lovely auto enhancement package donated by the 7 Summits Gas and Convenience Store.

A special thanks would like to be made to the Ross-Vegas boardshop and the 7 Summits Gas Station for donating prizes and sponsoring the event as well as the Rossland Frolf Association Executive for organizing the day. The RFA would also like to thank everyone for coming out, playing Frolf and taking part in this event. As this will be the RFA's last sanctionned event of the year, they would also like to thank all the sponsors, the Black Jack Nordic Centre and the city of Rossland for making the Thin Air Frolf Course one of the premier courses in the area.

How? This "Hat" style, 3 person-team tournament will be a "best ball format". Each player will throw a drive, then each player will throw from the best positioned disc, putt as per the above and the low stroke score will determine the champ. Teams will be randomly chosen with a "hat" draw. Each team must use at least 6 drives from each team member. The tournament fee will be $5 per frolfer with the top 3 teams paying out. Pete "RossVeg-ass" Gearin is donating a new disc to the top team.

Im just neat thats all!!

Apparently somebody thinks Im gay or look gay..whatever that means.

Anyways....On a totally different and unrelated matter that I assure you has nothing to do with the first sentence in this Blog. Really it doesnt. I would like to congratulate this years Masters winner...

Jeff Butcher

Congrats on your first Masters. -12 is quite impressive. Its totally too bad Fry couldnt get out for that mandatory Sunday round because he did play really well. We should have been more flexible on that sunday round.. I remeber when we came up with the couple of rounds through the week and then the final on sunday at that meeting and I was thinking to myself thats just not fair but I guess thats just the way it goes. I guess democracy does rule. Anyways.........

Congrats again Chunk!!!!!
