Welcome to Norway Open 3 - 5 august 2018!

 



Norway cooperate with Sweden for the 3rd. Norwegian and Swedish Open.

We are pleased to welcome you to Myhrene Gård for the 3rd Norway GC Open. Myhrene Gård has four full size croquet lawns in a fantastic environment. The pitch has a steady inclination, which will only mean the players focus must be even more focused during play.
Format
The tournament will start on Friday at 12:00 and continue until Sunday afternoon. After the final there will be a prize ceremony.
Participation is limited to 24 players. There will be a group stage played in 4 blocks of 6 players followed by a knock-out and plate. All block matches will be one 13-point game. Knock-out matches, as well as bowl/shield/7th place will all be best of three 13-point games. The plate will be played in 4 blocks followed by semi-finals and a final. All plate matches will be one 13-point game. The format guarantees all players a minimum of 8 games.
The format will be adjusted if fewer than 24 players participate. Play will be double banking on 4 lawns.
Entry
Enter by e-mailing Roar Michalsen at smichals@online.no. Deadline for initial allocation is March 14.
Allocation
 Norway has 6 places.
 For international players, there is an initial allocation on March 15. Entries received by March 14 will be accepted as follows:
o The highest ranked player from each country that has applied in descending order by world ranking as of March 14.
o Then the second highest ranked player from each country will be accepted in descending order and so on. This will ensure that all countries that are interested in participating have the ability to send roughly the same number of players.
 International players can continue to apply for any remaining places from March 15. Applications will be accepted in order received up to a country maximum of 6 players.
 Additional Norwegian players and players from countries that have reached their maximum can submit their name to a waiting list. Any remaining places will be allocated on April 30 from the waiting list in a similar fashion to the initial allocation.
 Deadline for any remaining places is on July 15, even if the event is not full to allow time for adjusting the format.
