We are now down to the "last 16" in the Nelipallo Cup, Miesten Tasoituksellinen Reikäpeli and the Miesten Reikäpelimestaruus, those matches are to be played by July 25th.
In the Reikäpeli Cup and the Naisten Tasoituksellinen Reikäpeli we are at the quarter-final stage and the matches need to be played by the 31st July.
All competitors who are still involved in the matchplay events have been sent a "reminder" informing them of their next opponents (and the relevant contact details) as well as the deadlines by which the matches have to be played.
All of these competitions are on a strict schedule in order to ensure that the finals are played before the KCT Tour Championship in mid-September (all the matchplay competitions count for the KCT) and also so that the finals can be played while the courses are still in their best condition (the temperature and the amount of rain in late September and October usually make playing conditions more challenging) and there is still enough daylight to allow a good choice of tee times.
There have already been more matchplay matches at Kytäjä in 2012 than there was in the whole of 2011, this has been a very positive trend. I hope that all competitors have enjoyed playing the 2012 competitions so far and that next year will see an even greater interest in participating.
