Facts about the Texas Open Players Tour

ok I can't keep my mouth shut. I think almost everyone missed the point of Roberts post. He is not looking for thanks, he is simply letting the players know what it takes to put on a tournament, then maybe the players will understand if they want a tournament like this to continue they must all help. The players must let everyone they know about the tournament and encourage them to come play, the more players that play, practice , and stay at the location the more chances the tournament has of being successful.

Exactly! And, that's the beauty in thanking somone.

Yes, but he also asked how to get more players to the event! One easy way to do it is to allow people that are BCA members to play even if they aren't in a sanctioned league. Most Texas cities don't have a sanctioned league. They have leagues, but they aren't sanctioned. Therefore you kind of cut your own throat by saying you have to be in a sanctioned league. I know of 3 events that I would have attended, and brought others. However, I couldn't play in them so I went and played in some smaller tournaments instead.

If he opens it up to all BCA or APA members, then he will see bigger turn outs, and therefore make more money. That is what this is all about.

You're gonna love this tournament, Scott! It was a blast. I can't wait for the next one I can go to.
