The 2013 North Carolina Series has been finalized and the details are set. Here are the basics:
- A champion will be crowned in Open, Pro Masters, Advanced and Intermediate.
- The top three finishers from each division will be paid. Cash for Open and Masters, Merchandise for Advanced and Intermediate. The amount paid is TBD as it is based on the number of entries from these divisions. Each event in the series will deduct one dollar from each player in these divisions. Other divisions will not have anything deducted from them.
- There will be 4 divisions - The East, The Triangle, The Central, and The West. There are 5 events per division. To be eligible for prizes, you must compete in at least one event in three of the four divisions.
- Your best 13 events count towards the series. If you play more than 13 events, your worst finishes will be deducted. If you play less than 13 events, you will receive the appropriate amount of 0's. All events, regardless of tier or size, count the same. The points scale is as follows:
