Request of Funds for Prize Money for the SE Regional Women’s Doubles Tournament
Members of the Board reviewed a request from the SE Regional Women’s Doubles tournament directors in regard to using some funds from our treasury in order to provide a more equitable distribution of prize money. The question dealt with the fact that first and second place winners of Concours would receive medals and prize money. The third-place finishers in this category would receive just a medal. However, in the Consolante category, first place would receive a cash prize. It was thought that this did not seem fair to the Concours third place winners as this is a category placing higher than Consolante. The CCP board voted to approve (6-0) to provide the sum of $70 each to the two Concours third place winners. These funds will be disbursed to the players the weekend of June 6 and 7.
