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!

Thanks goes out to all involved, led by 1st time TD Jamie Thomas, for putting on a great event!

The 10th Annual SFDGC Birthday Bash was held on Saturday, April 22nd, 2017. In a break from the typical format employed at past events, this year featured a best shot BYOP doubles format. The change in format allowed us to accommodate more players and definitely added to the festive atmosphere.

We had 101 teams (202 players) compete in the event, a record number of participants at the permanent Marx Meadow course! Master TD Sean Jack designed a 24 hole layout that was both challenging, fair, and fun.

The competition was divided into 4 pools: A, B, C (century – combined age at least 100), and M (mixed).

As is tradition, there was a cash payout across all divisions, which was funded in part by mulligan purchases ($5 each, MAX 2 per person).

Congratulations to our division winner: “Das Boot” — winning A Pool in an epic 5 hole playoff, “Underberg 8.0” — winning B Pool also in a playoff, “That’s another fine mess you’ve gotten us into” & “WigglyWarsen” — tying for the win in C Pool, and “Alternative Jacks” taking down the Mixed Pool.

In addition to the doubles competition, we celebrated with games, a huge birthday cake, and by spending time with the people who make this community so special!

On behalf of Sean Jack, Shawn Mercy (assistant TD), and the SFDGC Officers, thank you for making our 10th Birthday Celebration the best one yet! We hope to see you next year!

Here are the results, by pool. Please contact Sean Jack if you have not received your payout.

The Safari was held on November 10-11th, tentatively 27 holes on Saturday (shotgun) with extra baskets across the street and in Marx Meadow. Sunday the field was then split into 2 groups and play 18 holes each (A/B pool) for a total of 45 holes. There were putting contests sponsored by Vibram with prizes, food, drink and lots of fun! There was also a player’s party at Sports Basement Presidio with free beer and snacks afterwards.
