Sunday, September 4, 2016 at 2:41PM The 2016 MCA Gold Division Championship is projected for a 10:45 a.m. start on September 17, 2016 at Markey Park in Belton, Missouri. The player list below will be updated as players respond.
Monday, March 9, 2015 at 6:00AM The MCA has updated the Gold nine-wicket rankings to include the 2014 season. This ranking data is a full career update and includes all events starting with the inception of the MCA Nine Wicket Series in 2013.
The one-year 2014 Gold Rankings are available here. The simple ranking system is based on win percentage and average wickets scored per game. The system is an additional tool to be utilized by tournament managers for seeding blocks at MCA nine wicket events. The rankings system is based on games played within a division, so it is possible for a player to carry a ranking in multiple divisions.
Friday, August 29, 2014 at 7:15AM LEAWOOD, KS -- Several Gold-Eligible players opted for the Pro Playoff, but four evenly-matched players will head into battle at the MCA Gold Championship on September 13, 2014, in Belton, Missouri. The matchups follow:
Friday, August 29, 2014 at 7:05AM LEAWOOD, KS -- Despite missing the KC Open, Taylor Airrington still has a strong lead in the Gold Points race with 174 points. Debbie Breeden and Deborah Millican are 42 points back at 132, but Millican is opting to play in the Pro Championship on September 13. Bill Berg is within reach as well as he follows closely at 125 points. With only two rounds though for the Gold Playoff, everyone will be hoping Airrington loses in the first round in order to have a shot at catching him.
Thursday, July 31, 2014 at 7:41PM PARKVILLE, MO -- With the limited courts and the worst number for a division (seven), we had to once again mix the Pro and Gold Division block play. The good news we've obliterated the MCA 9WS entry record with 21 players!
We'll work with four blocks of three with games starting at 8:30 a.m. on Sunday morning. The top two from each block will advance to the eight player Pro Division playoff. The third place player in each block will play in a four-player Gold Playoff. Full schedule is listed below.
Thursday, July 17, 2014 at 6:00AM LEAWOOD, KS -- Despite only playing one game, Taylor Airrington expanded his lead in the Gold Race as his two main rivals, Jodi Adams and Deborah Millican, made the cut for the Pro Playoff. Debbie Breeden made the most of her day with three gold games and now holds second place with 132 points. Three players are just behind Breeden, so things could get interesting as we head into the final two events for 2014.
Wednesday, June 18, 2014 at 12:31PM Taylor Airrington entered the Oklahoma Open with a narrow four point lead in the Gold Race. But with Debbie Breeden opting out of the race it was up to Jodi Adams and Deborah Millican to close the gap. Airrington posts scores of 24-14, 30-11, 16-29 and 24-17 to keep his distance on the duo. In the end, he added another point to his advantage over Adams and kept the same 35-point lead he had over Millican. It's shaping up as a great race as now Bill Berg has slipped into fourth place in the race with only one event under his belt. It could be a wild one on July 12 when the Kansas Challenge rolls em' out for the next leg of the series.
