Full schedule was out by this point last year. I wonder what the hold up is.

2020 CHERRY VALLEY CC WINTER SERIES EVENT

[rahatbmc]

Played them all and my choice would be Cherry Valley.

Bellewood on April 7th wouldn't be a bad choice either.

[Noles]

Boy I hate the new format of the schedule and registration.

[woofelfin]

why?

[dankil13]

Its the same format the Philly PGA uses so I am used to it from signing my daughter up for Philly Jr Tour events. But I definitely prefer the old GAP format.

[Noles]

I hated it when the JR PGA switched. So less user friendly then what they were using before. When I saw GAP now has it I cursed out loud.

[Noles]

Sorry, I just noticed you asked. In general, it is much less user friendly. Just the look of it is bad. When you view each tournament, there is no information about the tournaments at all. On the old schedule, it had a ton of info like practice round availability etc. and if it wasn't posted yet, there was a spot that said TBD. There is nothing that I see on there now.

Once you logon to the Golf Genius page, all that info is there. Click the hyperlink to the event:

in for radley run

[Noles]

None of that comes up for any event. I have clicked on the event link, I have clicked on view. This is the definition of not user friendly. I've signed up for over 20 GAP events before. I shouldn't have this much trouble navigating it.

[Noles]

I see what you see now. It is only coming up for tournaments that are open for registration. Hopefully that will not be the norm. I'm trying to plan my son's tournament schedule and the longer I wait to get this info, the more difficult it becomes to make decisions.

[Noles]

Hoping to get the rest of the Team match schedule today.

[Noles]

Well at least we got the announcement that it will be out early next week.

[nfreda2211]

it seems to get later and later every year

[Benzo]

Super excited for this year...being exempt into everything but the open is huge for me. No more sweating out the qualifiers!

[nfreda2211]

I’m excited as well, I didn’t get to play any events other then gap team last year. This year I have a mid am qualifier at my home course and I’m planning on doing one of the Patterson cup qualifiers.

[Noles]

Interesting looking at the team match schedule. Aside from the AA and A, things don't always follow the form that listed in their rules. Even in A HVCC 2 lost its challenge match but remained in the A division. It would be nice if they published explanations along with the schedule.

[rahatbmc]

Wild Quail, second place last year in Division A, Section 8, dropped out. HVCC 2 had the best record of the third place Challenge losers.

[Noles]

Thanks for the info.

announced earlier today:UPDATED: GAP cancels all events thru May 15, including BMW GAP Team Matches

[Noles]

Terrible news about the GAP matches. Not sure why they would not consider postponing them. Fall GAP matches could be a cool thing.

[Drudersh]

I agree. I love fall ball and it would've given everyone something to look forward to come Sept/Oct.

 

Can't imagine the disappointment for Kennett Square's 3rd team. They were set to play Stonewall, Bidermann and Merion. What a rotation that would'be been....
