Help Us Plan a Great Tournament for You (updated 7/28/08)
Please send your entries early!
If you have skied at a Pangaea tournament before, you have likely witnessed the level of skier participation that is necessary to make the tournament a success. If more than 40 people attend, both lakes are used. Overlapping rounds for 40 or more skiers require about six drivers minimum, four scorers minimum, and 12 judges minimum, with six at any one time; 22 officials minimum. If only that number of people are available, the added responsibility ties them to the tournament for at least half the day making it more difficult to eat lunch, visit, and take breaks.
Historically, the "unlimited" capacity of these tournaments has not created a sense of urgency for people to register in advance. We encourage people to commit early enough that we can create a meaningful staffing of officials and running order. If we know attendance at least one week in advance, planning will be easier, organization will be improved, and stress levels will be reduced. At a minimum, we will know whether both lakes and double the officials are needed.
When you send in your entries to historically full tournaments, please think of Pangaea at the same time and send your entries.
