Each of the GJTS events will also have a Fundraising Flex Start C Tier on the Thursday or Friday before the event. This gives you an opportunity to practice and get another sanctioned round for the weekend! Each Flex Start will be $5 with a optional $5 ace pot!
If your division is full do not hesitate to get onto the waitlist for your division! Its the only way we know that you want to play! If there are spots available in another division leading up to the event we will reallocate said spots to your division if your division has people on the waitlist!
How the GJTS Points system works:
1. You will receive 5 points for attending the event.
2. You will receive 1 point for every person you beat in your division (excluding ties).
3. There is a change this season! If you are rated out of your division and have to move up a division you will be able to transfer 50% of your points to your new division. This only applies if you are moving up a division, you CAN NOT take points with you if you are moving down a division.
4. You have to attend at least 2 events to qualify.
Greater Joliet Tour Series Finals
You are fighting your way through this Tour Series and earning points to be able to compete in the GJTS Finals! The top 4 finishers (including ties for 4th place) we compete in an unsanctioned CASH PAYOUT round at Trinity Links on Sunday October 30th. This is a WINNER TAKE ALL payout format! Winner of each division in the GJTS Finals will be taking home $400 cash! That's enough to cover the registrations from the entire GJTS! We will still be awarding 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishers with trophies!
