This is where the open ended championship falls down, for this year can we not extend the counting rounds to 8 from 10 or something and then for next year pin down the 6 counting rounds into more like a regional format and then use other rounds as a club rounds. I appreciate that for a regional format we would ideally want more than 1 venue but if we continue with the Jag event for example this could be counted as a regional round rather than a club round. This in effect would lead to 3 championships, I.e. Club, regional and national. If we do stick to what we have from this year with best 6 to count and a multiple tie then a once off shootout is hardly fair to the competitors involved IMO. I think that what we need to do is learn how to do things smarter next year. That's all for now folks I'm back off to the Maui sunshine!!!
