In Response To: Directors need to speak up (Chuck Bower)

Chuck,

I can't speak for ABT tournaments but can speak for tournaments in the UK. They are essentially charitable endeavours with participants as beneficiaries and the people running them either scraping a breakeven position or actively losing money.

This is why hardly anyone does it.
