Mr. Sullivan, the DCC has been an outstanding event from its inception to the present success. Congratulations. I think everyone wants this success to continue, however, it has some growing pains which are easily recognized by the comments and suggestions.
I found that often times managers fail in their response to these problems due to using this three step approach...READY, FIRE, AIM. Make sure the problems are clearly identified before solutions are implemented. This is usually the most difficult part and the major problem causing managers to fail.
By thinking outside of the box, you have started an innovative plan to invigorate pool for the players, spectators, and viewing audience. Keep it going.....
