Hi Everyone,

First, let me just say that publishing and sending payouts 7+ weeks after an event is NEVER the plan. This event has struggled with timely payouts for a few years now and I’m not sure what the solution is. Having said that, I want to thank EVERYONE who played in this event for your patience.

Overview

This was our biggest Birthday Bash to date, with 226 players (113 teams) competing on a beautiful day in Golden Gate Park! I’d like to thank Philip and Connor for buckling in and kicking butt on running the event. I’d also like to shout out Alex Georgopoulis for putting in SO MANY hours working on the course so that we could all enjoy a unique and fun layout! Lastly, I’d like to thank all of the volunteers who helped with work parties, course setup, managing tournament central, and breakdown. Your contributions are greatly appreciated!

Payouts & Results

This is a very unique, non-sanctioned BYOP doubles event. We pay $ to ALL divisions, not just PROs. Here is the logic that was used to calculate payouts:

• Event net profit = available cash payout ($1.90 remained to make even numbers)
• PDGA Payout Tables were used
  • PRO: Used PRO Mid curve (~40% of field is paid)
  • ALL OTHER DIVS: Used AM Mid Curve (~45% of field is paid)
• Payouts were normalized ($ per team) across all divisions
  • Player pack values for each division were taken into account for this calculation
  • All divisions except Pros received a 2021 – 2024 club disc
  • All divisions received a towel
• Adjustments:
  • Transferred 2.5% of cash payout to PRO division (increasing PRO payout is common)
  • Then transferred 0.75% of cash payout to WOM (this should be typical)
  • Net Mulligan $ (DGS Only) were added based on division buy in
• Membership revenue was treated like all other revenue
• Entry fees were the same for all divisions ($120)

Here are the totals:

• Cash payout: $ 9,775.00
• Total payout (includes player packs): $ 12,134.80

Here are the payouts and results for all divisions:

Payments

I will start working on sending payments on Friday, 05/22. I hope to get them done by the end of the day.

IMPORTANT: ALL PAYOUTS WILL BE SENT TO THE PAYPAL ACCOUNT THAT PAID THE ENTRY FEES. Please coordinate with your partner to split the money!

Thanks again to everyone who helped make this event happen and to everyone who played!
