I think that is could be very doable. And with the right pieces in place, I could see an organization such as BCAPL or APA offering forms of sponsorship. The "CSI" (hint, hint Mark

) or "APA" Pro league. (Sorry jumping ahead of myself :smile
I think the beginning would need to be top amateurs that have the desire and disposable income to compete. Eventually, each city might run a tournament with the top 6 making the team. It could be a sort of tryouts. The possibilities are endless.
The first step would be to come up with rules and format. Then put together a few teams from different areas that are located geographically convenient, so that costs aren't too prohibitive. There could be an eastern, central, western divisions. Or southeast, northeast, northwest, etc. For example, I could see that teams of the area's top players (amateurs, pros, etc.) could come from up to say 4 hours away. In my area, that would include KC, St. Louis, Omaha, Des Moines, Tulsa, Topeka, Wichita, Columbia, Lincoln, etc. Teams from these areas could make up the Central division. Eventually, following the NFL or Baseball model. Just throwing some ideas out.
