plinkoWith this done, I'm open to suggestions on something to do in a similar vein for next season - the primary goal being to encourage new-ish players/teams to get into Open sooner rather than later. I'm not sure this did much to actually get teams into the league, though maybe it kept some teams sticking through the end (I like to think).
What about a pre-season tournament for teams who haven't played UGC, with 1st place getting all fees paid, 2nd place just getting entry fees, 3rd getting 3 people paid. It would cost a total of $60 more but I think if you got a fair number of teams it would show people what the lower level of open would look like and maybe get 4th place and below teams to see there would still be teams they would be close with.
