I would like to start constructive input into the above titled post
preface---not knowing exact numbers/ details of the Teams Event final placings and nos/team playing and forward plannings for the Event The following are comments and observations to instill comment and response-
The Barossa venues entered three teams in the Teams Event along with the Kingsford Dream team there may be others I'm not aware of. The Kingfords Dream team playing off in the final three tables with the Family One Team { North east region?} and Team one Staffers.
These four teams finished in the Top Eleven of all entered Teams approx 50 teams ---> 50 x 8 = 400 players. ie 32 players in the top 88 Finalists. = 36.7 % not Bad for one region ! . nb I dont have access to other regions nos and challenge other regions and TD's to compare their standings.
My Comment and Congratulations-- To Darren and Matty Norwood as Matty is the regular TD of all four team/venues in the Barossa Region entered, for developing and encouraging the standard of play, and team spirit, and all things in NPL poker , here in the GAWLER BAROSSA KAPUNDA / CLARE region.
I'd like to see this Teams Event continue on say at least once a year basis. The Staff be participants in the Event on any equal basis [ the best staff team only accured 48pts ? and finished 15-20 on the finalists ladder . Perhaps they could have a trophy amongst them selves. .The points scoring be non culmative into the second and final rounds .
Why not have teams of 4 players and use a similar points talling system.
some thought starters.
go Barossa - go grow NPL.
