2024 Gringo Classic – Update

We are just over 2 months away from the 2024 Gringo Classic.

After some recent feed back regarding the format and the pricing for the gringo the following revisions have been made.

The price for the entry fee now will be 600 pesos which will cover a few beers and the burger and tip. (No tee gifts will be provided this year). There will be a small item given to the players of the winning team.

Anyone who has already paid we will refund the money back to you at the tournament so that it doesn’t mess with the pro shop desk.

They will have a list of who paid what.

We are also going to try and host a draft night location TBD on Monday the 26th after skins.

The other thing that came up from numerous people is the format. We will try and make it as close to a Canada vs International as best that can be. The obvious challenge is not only getting enough international players but getting the handicaps as close as possible.

It will be left up to the captains to try and make the matches as close as possible.

Regards

Hola todos,

Since we are getting very close to  X-Mas, why won’t we all wear bright holiday colors!

The game will be very simple, 2 BB nets will count on every hole but you will change partners every 6 holes; 1 to 6, 7 to 12 and 13 to 18.                                           So you will have 3 different partners during the round and before each sequence of 6 holes  you must decide who each person’s partner is.

As usual, shut gone is at 10:00, cost for the game is a 100 pesos per couple and the maximum handicap allowed is 36.

Hoping we’ll have a Ho, Ho, Ho day

Mr & Mrs Claus
