Can we get this (Ryder-style) tradition going? Team New Haven (as this year's #swCT host) vs. Rest of CT. 

Emphasis on fun, meeting new people, and enjoying the greatest (as measured in units of frustration and perseverance) game every played!

Social Web & Golf?

It's Social Web week after all. Any ideas how we can infuse this good old fashioned throwdown (hey, that's what match play is!) with social web?

Narrowed it down to Laurel View and The Tradition at Wallingford. Any other ideas?

How's this to kick-off an annual tradition: Host (New Haven) vs. Rest of CT. Let's see if we can get 4-8 golfers on each side to have 2-4 flights at the least.

I will recruit for New Haven. Who's captaining Rest of CT?

Yale, Laurel View , The Tradition Wallingford, any others. 3-4 flights should be enough to get the Cup going. Got some ideas for prize posterity. Send in your thoughts.

Scramble?

I like the scramble format as well - kind of takes the pressure off those of us that maybe aren't really awesome at golf :)

I forget what it's called (best ball? fourball?) - but some combo of team format where best score for each hole is recorded, but still allows for individual play and scoring. I think we can keep costs down to $40 (18 holes and cart). Early morning teetime, then off to health & Wellness Expo, then onto World Cup Finale, then onto the next 5 days of swCT...
