The Female Amateur Divisions will be combined to FA1. FA1 in all the series tournaments will be the short layout for both rounds. I am doing this primary because this is a point series and you need 3 people in a division to get points, If there is less then 3 players you still get 1 point for player participation. I choose FA1 because that will give you the most pdga points also. The point series will still offer FA1, FA2, FA3, FA4 and FA40 because I have to offer them per PDGA. Please choose FA1. The FA2, FA3, FA4 and FA40 will be removed after 1 week of registration. If you have any questions please message me. Thank You.
