***Update - new e-list for those who want to help organize, or participate in the Peoples' Golfing Association (PGA) tournament during the G8 in Gleneagles.  Visit - http://lists.riseup.net/www/info/pgag8  No Caddies, No Masters! ***

 The People's Golfing Association (the PGA) is planning to host an open golf tournament during the G8 at Gleneagles.

We would certainly encourage people to begin forming autonomous golfing affinity groups. Golfing is harder than it looks (especially when the hole is obscured by teargas), so start practicing your swing!

People will have to bring their own golf clubs and balls, so those not into shoplifting should keep an eye out for second-hand equipment.

Fundraising will also be needed if we want to pull off some of our more ambitious actions.

We are organising in a non-hierarchical fashion, and have adopted the PGA hallmarks as our basis of unity. Additionally, members are committed to the appreciation of the finer aspects of golf.

If golfing affinity groups want webspace, we would be happy to link to them from the PGA site - http://www.tao.ca/~wrench/dist/g8/pga.html or give space and post material.

Photos and golfing tips are most welcome.
We can also list contact emails for various regions for those trying to put together golfing teams in their community.
It should be stressed that the PGA does not claim to have a monopoly on golf tactics against the G8, and thus the formation of other blocs would be welcome.
 

No caddies, no Masters!
