So the next 4 weeks we have no league. But im sure many would like to continue foosing so how about this.
On Wednesday whoever wants to shows up for 8pm and we play a singles tournament and a no-fee DYP (or $5, something minimal, save the money for Fridays) at the same time.
We at OFA don't play very much singles, and it shows when we go to tournaments, but the recent league changes helped to address this problem (playing an extra singles and specialty). Other foosball clubs run DYP's and then singles draws afterwards but I think with our number of tables we should be able to run them at the same time and it will save on time. (and I think we will have lower numbers)
I think for both tournaments we should test out Sean Lees new tournament format.
We could also do a points race for the month, with a prize awarded to the top player and the top rookie (player that hasn't gone to a tournament, ever). Maybe OFA money towards the players next/first tournament, OFA swag, t-shirt, wraps, nachos, w/e Chris has surplus of, just some incentive. And since its more casual if players miss a week its all good, at the end of the month this can be fixed by each player choosing their best 3 weeks (if they showed up every week), that way their is still an incentive to come every week but players who miss one week out of 4 are not penalized.
