WSS Tournament Name Brainstorming

[crdiscgolf]

CRDGC is hosting a C tier 1 day tournament on July 14th. This will be at two rivers with 2 rounds of 21 holes. Use this thread for brainstorming ideas for what we should call the tournament.

We are also hosting a 2 day B Tier for the finals, but the title will likely be "Washington State Series Championship"

Where The Rivers Cross

Tale of Two Rivers II

(There is already a Tale of Two Rivers near Auburn, and their tourney will already have been before this one... and it's the same name so it could cause confusion and/or be "lame." But, it might also work.

Not too wild about either of them, but it's a start

[Jeff Hemmerling]

(There is already a Tale of Two Rivers near Auburn, and their tourney will already have been before this one... and it's the same name so it could cause confusion and/or be "lame." But, it might also work.Please don't name this tourney the same as another one. It will end in tears. :(;)

I just added it to the calendar.

The White Bridge Open....


Would be great if there could be a Blue Bridge Open held at Columbia...



More thought to come...:posting:

[runnaman]

First Event: The Two Rivers

Second Event: Return of the Ching

And you could have a fundraiser before July and call it "The Fellowship of the Links"

(Lord of the Rings)

Yeah, and aside from using/stealing a name already used, it would be odd having it as a "II" and be at a different course altogether.

[DGShawn]

Hmmm..

Columbia River Clash...

Two Rivers Throwdown...

[crdiscgolf]

Hmmm..

Columbia River Clash...

Two Rivers Throwdown...

Columbia River Clash works well, especially because it includes the club's name :)

River Cross Toss

Cross River Toss

Columbia River's Disc Barrage

Where The Rivers Clash

Disc Barrage Where the Rivers Cross (too long) :( But maybe when talked about people would just refer to it as "The Disc Barrage"

[Cerrgurry]

Will it only be 18 holes and not include the three peninsula holes.

perhaps Three on the Link and Two in the drink (oh wait that is just me playing doubles). sorry if that offends anyone...

Battle of the Goose Poo

Two Rivers Convergence (math terms it is all things end up the same regardless of order aka we all end up with discs in the basket) Or health wise the crossing of ones eyes....crap i kinda like that one. no i really like this one...it means so much.

The guaranteed to be perfectly calm and dont bring any stable discs Two Rivers Classic. (might need to shorten it or something)
Shock and Awww get stable presented by the CRDGC

Duck, duck, GOOSE?
The Two Rivers Fling " To fling or not to fling"

Crosswinds at Two Rivers
The Two Rivers Stroll or Stroll at the Park

In more seriousness it would be neat if it had an aviary sort of name since the holes are all birds.



(please note some are meant to be funny and just reflect my experience there :)) I really love two rivers :) some of them are not too bad.

[3 Fingers]

it only seems right to call it ...The Dennis Rockwell Open !!

[Cerrgurry]

As long as it is not the Dennis Rockwell Memorial...want to keep that buzzard around for a few more years. :)

Having a Dennis Rockwell Open was mentioned at our first meeting and Dennis kind of shrugged off the idea and jokingly said that he'd be fine with it only after he was dead.

Having some name associated with birds, just like with the tee signs, is one idea we could go with.

Maybe to incorporate the "Goose Poo" we can have a custom disc with a picture of a goose, some "poop" splotches near the edges, and a title of "Goose $#!+"

[DGShawn]

Acording to the Urban Dictionary http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=goose%20poo

Goose Poo means "The Smell of Victory"


Awkwardly fitting....:confused:

[juicypat]

The Tri-Town Throwdown

Disc-mageddon

[Odie]

The Fling in Finley

Two Rivers - One Winner

[Discing Dennis]

OK, not that I'm lobbying for it you understand, but just for the record or at least as I remember it, my objection was to calling it a Memorial, and for the obvious reason. Calling it an Open, on the other hand would be very flattering and also appreciated.

The Foul Fowl Fling at Finley Lagoon

or, for short, just

The Foul Fowl Fling

That settles it then....

CRDGC's president also wanted to have one of our first tournaments the "Dennis Rockwell Open," and now that we've got approval from the man himself... I'm sure it may be used :)
(It doesn't have to be this upcoming C Tier WSS tournament though)

The use of Finley Lagoon looks good too

We could also consider "Foul Fowl Open" as an alternative to "Foul Fowl Fling Open"

Maybe we can brainstorm about tournament titles like "open" "memorial" "fling" "toss" etc... and find the most appropriate to meet this particular tournament.

[DGShawn]

hmmmm...

I like the ring here " Columbia River Foul Fowl Open"

we could call it the Curffo....heh

I still think the first PDGA event should be the Dennis Rockwell Open . It can always be moved to a later date in the future. Here's a few more . Two Rivers Flick Fest...
Two Rivers Huck & Chuck
The Finley Flick
The Goose Pooh Open

One thing to point out is that this WSS Tournament may or may not become an annual event. If it does, it also might not be a WSS event every year. Since this is the first year the club has been in operation, there shouldn't be any problem with changing a similar C Tier structured event's name in the future. But it also might turn into a B Tier and be run differently.

Keep the names coming!

[Yoduh]

I am huge fan of fun tourney names but I think if your hitting up sponsors you have to come up with cheeky fun but still good enough to be serious. I wish I had a good one to add but I really like "Two Rivers Classic".. I will think on this for a bit and post if I think of anything.

[Big dawg 99]

The trifecta open

[stephen_wendt]

Two Rivers Open seems like a safe choice. If you are looking for a different name maybe 'The Drowning Disc Open' because of our Bay Holes. You can put a a custom stamp of a disc with arms TRYING to swim but struggling/drowning.

[Yoduh]

Two rivers.. Classic, challenge, Fling, Throwdown, shootout, Conquest, showdown, Cup. Battle of Two Rivers

[D.L.]

Columbia River FOUL! HIS TOE WAS OVER THE LINE! Fowl! Open. Mark it Zero-

[3 Fingers]

It's offical "The Dennis Rockwell Open" and thank you Dennis for the 25 plus years of blood and sweat to make TWO RIVERS the park that it is " The best PARK in the Tri-Cities" Enjoy your retirement !! you earned it :trophy:

Fitting name for a man who gave so much to a park that will play host to the event.

I am not much of a hot weather tournament golfer...but I will brave the July sun in Finley for this one and just hope that it is another mild summer with temps in the 80s and not 100's.

[3 Fingers]

Don't worry Kris , We'll have plenty of opportunities to get in the water :laughing:

[Jreynolds]

Is there going to be online registration available for this event??

[DGShawn]

I do not think we even have a confirmed TD yet, so at this point who knows....?

[Jreynolds]

The tourney is a little over a month away. This stuff needs to be figured out. From what I've experienced and heard, the WSS tourneys have been top notch this year, we dont want to be the ones to screw that up

[crdiscgolf]

Kyle, CRDGC's Vice President, is currently the TD for the Dennis Rockwell Open, and any changes to this will be addressed at the June 9th Meeting.

Don't expect online registration, but we will give notice if it becomes available.

Here's a link to the WSS website: http://washingtonstateseries.drupalgardens.com/

A Dennis Rockwell Open Flyer and Pre-Registration form should be finished by next week.

[3 Fingers]

Have some FAITH in our club . but i hear you , we do need to get on the ball or in this case on the DISC . Kyle will do just fine ,he knows what it's going to take to throw a great tournement.They can't do it ALL.. As club members we all need to help out anyway we can no matter how small it is. little things can get over looked so let's rock this tourney to the CORE :rockon:



PEACE OUT

[Danielsp12]

Just curious, if there isnt gonna be an online registration, how do we get registered? Sorry if this was already answered, I may have missed it. Either way, cant wait to play!

[Danielsp12]

Haha, nevermind, just saw my question was answered 2 posts above.
