The team scoring system should be more akin to the payouts of the tournament imo. I mean who enters a 200 runner MTT to finish in the top 100?
The people finishing in the top 3 or so positions (certainly final table) should have a large bearing on who wins the team prizes, so points increments should increase accordingly on the final table.
Probably a difficult one to get right but certainly think 100 getting points is a bit much.

Totally disagree - it"s a team event so it matters less who is in the top few than where the majority of the team finish. Current scoring system is spot on. Please don"t mess about with this event.

I"m in this camp - to "over weigh" the points for the "top finishers" I fear would skew the all-round performance of the whole team - for both the teams that do well with 1 or 2 players who run very deep, but also for the teams who don"t quite make the final few spots but maybe did very well with their players up to that point - the performance of the "whole team" being the deciding factor in crowning the Champions.

A multi day cash event is a non starter at team events for me. If I"m not in a team I will travel/ stayover for one night to play cash tourn and have a drink. No chance I"ll stay two nights if not in a team though.

I"m working on giving the APAT National weekends (and incl UK Team Champs weekend) more of a mini-festival feel to them - the emphasis being (as far as possible) to give everyone something to aim for in addition to, or outside of if you are unfortunate not to get into, the main event - even for those who may run deep in the main event. I"m in discussions with Genting Stoke and just await their reply to confirm what we can offer over Fri 31st Jan to Sun 2nd Feb - so hopefully we can make it a bit more enticing/exciting for you guys.
Everything will be confirmed by the closing date for teams to apply for UK Team Championship entry - thereby allowing both those successful teams and those unsuccessful teams/individuals to plan accordingly for events throughout the whole weekend - and travel and accommodation of course as well.
