Title: Premium Squad Times?
Post by: Strapper_Squared on August 17, 2016, 09:18:25 AM
Reviewing the registration form.  There is a brief note indicating a $75 fee for selecting Premium squads, but doesn't provide any details on what these are.

Are they "premium" times?  Premium dates?  Squads with easy brackets and a house shot?

I find it silly to include, then give zero information on what they mean.

Also, the entry cost seems (at least based on my poor memory) to have increased significantly...  $190 per bowler for everything (including the online filing and registration fees).  Is this more than in previous years?

I'm NJ, too, do you mean the yearlong event ? Do they still have the free hotel coupon? I'm really good on any pattern and maybe you could think about me joining your team.

Thanks. 

Yes, talking about the upcoming Open Championships.
If all goes as planned, we have 1 team and an extra to bowl S/D.  Three BR members on a single team!  If something changes, I'll keep you in mind.

Planning on bowling week of May 22nd.  Would be open to pairing up with another BR team!  If anyone has interest, please let me know.

Thanks

Premium squad are the ones on Friday and Saturday. It applies to any squad on these days, but there are a few dates very early and very late in the tournament where they aren't premium.

I currently have 5 teams for Vegas and we bowl on June 28th and 29th if your team wanted to join us.

Thanks for the info, we are coordinating our trip around a teammate who is travelling for work, so are pretty fixed to the May dates...but appreciate the offer!
