2024 (17th) Birthday Bash Payouts!!!

Posted on Facebook by Shawn Mercy (2024-06-06)

Hi All,
On behalf of the TD team and your club officers, we thank you all for your patience around these delayed payouts.

Sometimes personal commitments interfere with the best intentions and duties assumed by our volunteer Tournament Directors. This is one of those times. Again, thank you for your patience!

Mike Sale will be sending out payouts via Paypal this afternoon. The entire payout for a given team will go to the Paypal address that was used to pay registration fees.

We’d like to remind everyone that this is not a PDGA event and we typically do not have sponsors to help cover the costs for the event. The result is lower payouts than what some might expect.

 In the spirit of full transparency, here is how they were calculated.

• Total Payout (all divisions) = Event Net Profit + Club Support ($7000.00 = $6,383.53 + $616.47)

• Event Net Profit includes ~$235 of membership dues paid by people playing the event.

• Proceeds from Mulligans were distributed to each division (not all divisions purchase mulligans at the same rate)

• Players in the PRO division did not receive a disc as part of the players pack. We valued the discs @ $12 which resulted in an increase of $552.00 to the PRO payout ($12 x 46).

• Payouts were then determined for each division based on the number of players with additional adjustments (increases) made for rounding and to ensure the smallest division(s) received a nice payout. These adjustments were covered by the Club’s contribution.

• A minimum of 33% of teams were paid out in each division (including ties). This is slightly lower than it would be for a PDGA event.

We hope that this context helps.

HUGE THANKS to our TDs Alex Georgopoulos and Dave Headd for making the 17th Birthday Bash a great one! And big thanks to Mike Sale for helping with these payouts!
