19 entrants this year, so that means three preliminary round matches, then 4 rounds.  Splitting the contestants into 10 Northerners and 9 Southerners and using random number generation, the 3 preliminary matches are:

Ian Galbraith vs Marty Bonnar
Michael Graham vs Clyde Johnson  and
Robin Hiseman vs Tony Muldoon

Then:

(1) Galbraith/Bonnar vs Pearce
(2) McIntosh vs Wiggett
(3) Carlton vs Gallant
(4) Cheslett vs Graham/Johnson

(5) Boon vs Reader
(6) Lawrence vs Payne
(7) Chaplin vs Krume
( 8) Muldoon/Hiseman vs Stephens

Then

(9) Winner of (1) vs winner of (2)
(10) Winner of (3) vs winner of (4)
(11) Winner of (5) vs winner of (6)
(12) Winner of (7) vs winner of ( 8)

Which produces a Northern conference final:

(13) Winner of (9) vs winner of (10)

and a Southern conference final

(14) Winner of (11) vs winner of (12)

and a grand final between the winners of those.

Can we try to get the preliminary rounds played by the end of May, please?

Edited to correct the stupid mistake identified by Ben.

Thanks for organising Mark.


Michael, Niall and Tim: Perhaps we could make our two matches a four-ball, given our rough geographical proximity?


Any ideas for a venue...I'm running out of central-belt courses to explore for the first time, but on my list from West to East: Skelmorlie, East Kilbride, Greenock, Helensburgh, Troon Darley, Ranfurly Castle, Cowglen, Pollok, Cawder, Cathkin Braes, Glenbervie, Mortonhall and Royal Mussleburgh.


I'd be open to a longer trip, somewhere like Glencruitten or Seahouses...or any other suggestion for that matter?

Clyde,


I'm up for playing our two matches as a four-ball if that suits Tim and Niall. I know the idea is to play at neutral venues but I'd be happy to host the three of you at Mortonhall. My lousy golf will counter any home course advantage. I know Tim's not played Mortonhall, I suspect Niall hasn't either or at least not for a long time.

Thank you Mark for unveiling the draw.


Just to clarify if Hiseman is playing Muldoon in Preliminary round surely its either Hiseman or Muldoon against myself rather than Muldoon or Krume. Also that Krume should be playing Chaplin in Match 7 rather than Hiseman?


Good riddance that bandit Cheslett is in the Northern half!! - watch out  ;D ;D ;D

Once again, well done in organising, and Mike once again thank you for the draw sheet.

Clyde/Michael,

I'd be very happy to play Mortonhall which I've never played before but also happy to play any of those listed by Clyde.

Tim

Any thoughts ?

Thanks to Mark once again and I hope you are fit and well again soon after your brush with White Van Man!


Just for the sake of information would it be possible for individual handicaps to be displayed on the brackets? I have no idea what most of my potential opponents in the northern half of the draw play off. It's always nice to know what you're up against.


FWIW, I'm a 12

I see Marty and I have our annual get together once more  :)


Marty - Sticking to the East side how about Crail, Aberdour, Muckhart, West Lothian. Would happily have a return visit to Bathgate if you fancied that too.


Drop me an email and we'll figure out a date in April which works for both of us.


Ian

Hey hey!


Would love to finally see Mortonhall as it's been one I've wanted to see for a while yet. Unfortunately, the first free weekend I have now is 22 June!!


If we think we might be able to get an evening game in May during the week, then I could definitely try to make that work - however, I appreciate that might be limiting, so happy to bow out if I end up holding things up. Just let me know!!

Tim

We couldn’t possibly have the defending champion bowing out in such a fashion, besides a May date would mean I get to stay in the competition longer !

Michael/Clyde – maybe if you guys want to play your tie earlier you could crack on and do that rather than waiting for Tim and myself.

My 17 is the world’s most unrealistic expectation!
Ian and I are planning the end of May probably somewhere in Fife/Dundee if any others can join.
