Sorry 'bout the left novice guys, but for the past 2 years I haven't had the entries to fill it up. Find me more novice lefties and I'll drop the 400.00 again for the trophies.

Charles would be nice and tired after those 3 losses and should have no excuses. See ya in June.

Charles if you are spending $400 on 12 trophies, I hope you smiled on the way out the door last year! We need to talk about awards because that's $33 each! And if you paid that 1) you've lost your marbles, 2) you need to find a new trophy supplier, and 3) you definitely were raped! And what is the deal with you guys down in Florida? Why do the competitors need to find you more people to enter? This isn't Field of Dreams! Get out there and find them. Advertise, advertise, advertise!!!! Put an ad in the newspaper, put up fliers all over the establishment where the tournament is being held, ask the manager of the establishment if you can bring a table in some nights before the event and give some demonstrations, travel to other events and talk to the Novice pullers. Mailing out fliers this year should help you out a lot too. Also a suggestion - cut your Novice classes down from 4 to 3. Offer 70kg or 78kg, 95kg, and 95+kg. You almost never have as many people pulling left hand as you do right hand but you should be able to fill up 3 Novice left hand classes.

I think Charles just got mixed up on how much 12 trophy's cost. Charles, I think you should do 4 novice left classes and it should pay for itself. You can do 3 if you want, but I don't think it is a good Idea. It's to much weight and strength difference in the Novice, and being the Novice class somebody could get hurt. But ultimately it is up to you and Carey if you want to do a novice left. See you and Carey next week at the Battles Arena.
Karen - as much novice people ya'll have at FL. States you should be able to fill 5 to 6 left handed novice Classes!! I remember my first florida states I went to about 5 years ago and it had 26 entries in the Right hand heavies!!!

Its good to see that left hand novice will be represented. I think you will have a good amout of entries to pay for the class.
