2024 Message from Tournament Director Sas Peters:
Dear Friends,
East Hampton Grand Masters, the birthplace of it all, is happening on May 18&19 this year 2024. We sure hope to see all of you there. As usual, $20 gets you all the play you want on Saturday and Sunday: 3 games on sat and at least two on Sunday, free camping at my beautiful place which includes use of giant pool, hot tub, bathrooms and dinner deliveries of all varieties, and giant complimentary pancake breakfast on Sunday. After Sunday’s games, we will have a giant bonfire on the beach and put all of our heads together to come up with the name of the next division for over 70’s. The final game of Saturday will feature players of the new IMMORTAL division, and anybody over 65 will be encouraged to play. All of you youngsters will be encouraged to hoot and holler at these reckless oldsters. Remember East Hampton is the original Grand Masters tournament, so anybody over 40 is welcome. Players are of course welcome to camp, and fancier accommodations are always available, but for a free Hampton’s vacation you can’t beat it. There is always entertainment and entertainment will be provided.
Hugs To All,
Sas
Let’s make it a real party with great play, great spirit and great creativity. Families and children are always welcome.
GRAND MASTERS OF EAST HAMPTON NY 2024
WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, HOW, WHY AND WHO
We are happy to announce that on May 18 and May 19 the 22nd annual Grand Masters of East Hampton tournament will be held.
We hope to have confirmation from teams and will update as confirmed. Historically teams from Philly, NY/Conn., Brooklyn, Maryland, Pelham NY, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Toronto, Montreal, Texas, Ohio have attended. We also have individual players from all over arrive to supplement squads in need and encourage combination teams to form.
The cost for this tournament will be $200 per team or $20 per player, which will cover the costs of fields, insurance, water, bananas, breakfast Sunday, beer Saturday evening, and free camping at the host's home.
ACCOMMODATIONS:
Free camping, with outdoor shower, pool and hot tub will be available at the home, situated on 20+ acres of land outside of Amagansett 10 minutes from the fields. The home is also two minutes from the best ocean and bay beaches anywhere.
For those interested in fancier accommodations, we will post more detail on this later. The web can provide all info on hotels and B&B nearby in Montauk and East Hamton. The Ocean Dunes in Amagansett, is a close and nice place and directly on the ocean.
East Hampton is one of the premier resort destinations in the world and has every sort of hotel or cottage or B&B accommodations one could ask for. .
FOOD
We will have the option to have dinner delivered to the house Saturday evening for those who order in advance. Captains will receive information on ordering dinner from the Fish Farm and may call and place orders for their team
The choices are salmon, tuna, or lobster dinners. There will also be children's offerings of hamburgers, hot dogs and chicken fingers available to order.
Sunday morning breakfast is provided for all including pancakes, eggs, bacon, juice, fruit, coffee.etc.
MISCELLANEOUS INFO AND LOGISTICS
Teams are welcome and encouraged to arrive Friday if you can.
Saturday morning's play will not start until 11:00 am to allow those folks who need to travel on that day time to comfortably get there. The Captain's meeting will start at 10:30 am Saturday with three rounds of play on Saturday followed by a Legends (60+) exhibition round. Dinner Saturday starts at about 7:00pm at the house. After dinner there will be circles of campfires around the property to stroll through with stories, music and songs, some special surprises and foolishness.
Sunday play will start at 10:30 am and we will have three rounds of play with finals to determine a champion after round robin play finishes.
Children and families are always welcome everywhere, so bring the whole gang. They will enjoy the villages of East Hampton and the surrounding towns as there is incredible shopping, yummy restaurants, beautiful dunes and beaches, and fun activities everywhere. Beaches are open to the public until Memorial Day. East Hampton Main Beach is a 5 minute drive from the fields. The oldest farm in America (Home Sweet Home) is on Main Street as is Harriet Beecher Stowe's house. History is everywhere on Main Street. There are 2 playgrounds near the fields and the house has a small swingset, playground, an outdoor pool and hot tub. Hiking trails abound in the surrounding preserves.
This tournament will be covered by local media. Be mindful that there are strict rules prohibiting drugs or alcohol in the town of East Hampton, save it for back at the house.. Unfortunately, dogs are not welcome at the fields. Littering will not be tolerated and responsible cleanup at the fields, beach and the house land will be insisted upon. We want to be able to hold this tournament forever.
Yours Truly,
Alexander "Sas" Peters apeters13@gmail 917-992-4730
2022 Message from Tournament Director Sas Peters:
Top o’ the morning to ya!!!! East Hampton is on!!!!! May 21&22, 2022. So bring your teams or just bring yourselves. Can’t wait to see ya.
As always camping at my place is free. Anyone who wants hotels I can help with that. 3 games saturday followed by showcase Legends game. Then back to my house for Preakness (very important for Marylanders and horsey types like me).
After Preakness, Fish Farm will deliver to all smart enough to order from them. Then the party starts. WOOOOHOOOO!
Sunday Morning starts with the traditional pancake breakfast. Semis and finals start at 10:30. All who want to arrive early to help with Treehenge and touch the clouds and commune with the spirits are welcome. All who want to stay over on Sunday and go to the ocean afterwards (this seems the perfect place to discuss our Legends plans) are also welcome. My pool, hot tub and outdoor will be open and ready for action.
Hugs and Love to All,
Sas

Captains and Players,
Registration is now open for the 10th North American Grand Masters Championship. The tournament last year worked out great with a very high and fairly even and increasingly strong level of play. We had teams from many different places in the US and Canada and since last year’s tournament have had interest from a many new places across North America. It also great to see that Grand Masters as a division is taking off.
The 10th North American Grand Masters Championship will be held in Montreal, Canada on September 27th and 28th, 2014. The Open class tournament is open to all guys at least 40 years old by December 31, 2014 and women at least 35 years old by December 31, 2014.
The tournament will be played on the very nice grounds of the Douglas Hospital next to the St-Laurence River on the Island of Montreal. We expect to have between 3 and 4 games Saturday and between 2 and 3 games Sunday. We plan to be finish by 2pm Sunday.
Looking forward to seeing those discs fly,
