The scrimmage series was a hit this year, with a growing turn out from last year. The Bucks County team did a lot of travelling this year, making multiple trips to North Carolinea (For the Orange Couty Tournament and Eastern Regionals), competiting in the Warwick (NY) and Bay Area (MD) tournaments. Bucks also supplied a C grade team at APA nationals in Hunt Texas, coming home a tough fought second place!
The second ever Bucks County APA tournament was held September 23-24th at the Bucks County Horse Park, and everyone had a great time showing their stuff, despite the rainy weather (we've had some bad luck with our tournament weather- lets hope for better weather in 2007!).

Don't just wait for the sanctioned tournement though... points accumulated during the season at the scramblers could earn you cold hard cash by the end of the season... the system works as follows:
Players enter the scramblers as individuals, and are placed on teams according to their level of play. At the end of the day, players are awarded points depending how their team does. The individuals with the most points at the end of the series win! The prizes are as follows
1st place- $150
2nd place- $125
3rd place- $100
4th place- $75
5th place- $50
