Then bi weekly, bi monthly, monthly. You determine the frequency of the league

Because if you can only make one of the two days, going to the one you can attend is pointless. A lot of two day weekend tournaments lose potential customers for the same reason.Why not a two-round, two-day C-tier on, say, a Wednesday/Thursday where each round starts at 5:30 or 6:00pm?
The PDGA has done an exception to that rule on a number of occasions.C-Tiers have a minimum number of holes, 36.

seems like a "requirement" that they don't really mind waiving.
The ones in Charlotte were part of a larger event that weekend ran by DD.
The one at the Nest was a warmup for the Clash, and Elon for the CAC.
Those Bowling Green ones are probably similar.
I'll find out. It's worth a shot to see what they would like to have for something like this.They are all warm ups to a bigger weekend tournament, but they're still C-tiers with less than 36 holes. I'm certainly not implying that the OP would have the ability to do such on a random Thursday.
Realistically, I don't know why anyone already facing the challenge of getting people to the tournament because its on their workday, would want to potentially chase even more people off with sanctioning it as a C tier, effectively forcing non members to pay an extra $10 fee, and over one round no less.
But how many people in a particular area have both a PDGA membership and the proper weekday off, or can get the tournament day off on leave? To me, you're going to lose a lot of the PDGA folks who can't manage that, therefore its best to make up for those folks with non-PDGA people who can make it.That's a fair point, but I wonder if that's actually a bigger factor than the people who would be brought in because it was sanctioned. I think the answer probably depends on the area you're in and how popular/prevalent PDGA membership is.
Which to me is just one more point against sanctioning. Really, the only argument for sanctioning would be for the insurance.There alot of players, but alot of people have no idea about tournaments, or the PDGA really. I think to many times a tourney is created and then no gournd beating is done to drum it up in the area, this is coming from my area. I played for years before I ever found out about the PDGA tourneys in the area or the PDGA and how big it actually is.
But alot of people like the fanfare, it alone is a draw. Shoiwing up on a league for one night can feel akward for some people. I also see alot of use on the courses after work on the weekdays which made me think of this.
Why not a two-round, two-day C-tier on, say, Wednesday/Thursday where each round starts at 5:30 or 6:00pm?
And I like the idea. But there are two weekend days, which still a great majority of folks have at least one if not both off, and five weekday days, which those of us with nontraditional schedules are scattered all about. For a weekday tournament to work, you'd have to have enough people on one of those particular weekdays available.It's all an idea I've had from as I said before, there are so many people now that don't have Monday-Friday jobs anymore. Just about anyone who works in retail/hospitality/food serive ect.. will work at least one weekend day usually and has to miss basically every tournament out there. We're always talking about how the PDGA needs new ideas to grow and develop.
