We have a great new adventure golf course in Finland (I guess City-Golf had some role in planning the layout), and the owner is generally interested in organizing competitions, even international ones:\r\n\r\nwebsite:\r\nhttp://www.pirateadventuregolf.fi/\r\n\r\nplaying notes:\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_stat.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_01.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_02.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_03.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_04.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_05.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_06.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_07.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_08.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_09.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_10.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_11.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_12.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_13.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_14.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_15.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_16.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_17.xls\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_rata_18.xls\r\n\r\nphotos:\r\nhttp://www.gardengolfer.com/temp/Jaala_adv_golf.zip\r\n\r\nmap link:\r\nhttp://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=fi&geocode=&q=Paloj%C3%A4rvenkuja+16+\r\nkouvola&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=41.003738,67.587891&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=\r\nPaloj%C3%A4rvenkuja+16,+47830+Kouvola,+Suomi&ll=61.015725,26.586914&\r\nspn=6.298611,16.896973&z=6 \r\n... or write in http://maps.google.com search: Palojärvenkuja 16, Kouvola\r\n\r\nIn the local news:\r\n http://yle.fi/alueet/kymenlaakso/2010/08/minigolf_ei_ole_pelkka_kesaharrastus_1875311.html

Which months do nations usually publish their names for national teams - late spring, early summer? I do not really think the WAGM idea deserves this kind of bashing, at least not at the moment. Give it a chance, please.\r\n\r\nEdit: typos
