At risk of being shot down for not being realistic ... If this is going to have a large impact on player attendence & team competitiveness ... perhaps these tournaments should be split over 2 weekends ... rather than including weekdays ... or hold more smaller yet more focused events that can sit comfortably in 1 weekend at a time.
I will be the first to admit that I haven't looked at the current tournament structure, I've not considered any practicalities, costs to player or teams, ... I guess my question is has anyone?
