The standard rules of disc golf will apply as published by the PDGA.
The two meter rule is not in effect.
Out of bounds will be defined and explained at the course.
League will be run on a points system:
10 points are earned for showing up.
Points are awarded to each player based upon finishing place each week by using the inverse of the players’ position. For example; if there are 20 players, 2nd place earns 19 points, 13th place earns 8 points.
Bag tags will be distributed each week at the conclusion of the round based on finishing position.
Players are allowed a one week grace period on their current bag tag. If you miss more than one week, the bag tag must be surrendered.
Bag Tag Challenge Rules:
1. Members who possess a current bag tag may issue/schedule/participate in challenges.
2. Any member with a higher bag tag number may challenge any player with a lower bag tag number to a round of disc golf.
3. Members cannot avoid challenges by leaving the bag tag at home or by concealing your bag tag (see forfeiture).
4. Challenges may be made in person, by telephone, or e-mail. When a challenge via telephone or e-mail has been accepted, neither player can participate in casual challenges until the agreed upon match has taken place.
5. The player receiving the challenge can choose the course to be played AND must make a “fair and reasonable†effort to be available within 2 weeks.
6. If the challenger cannot agree to a reasonable time or date for the match within the coming week, the challenge is void and both players may look for new challenges.
7. Once the challenge has been agreed upon, any changes must be agreed upon otherwise forfeiture may occur.
8. If the challenger has the lowest score for the round, the tags must be exchanged immediately following the round.
9. Challenges are on a round-by-round basis; i.e. challenges are for one round only in a multiple round event.
Automatic Challenges:
Automatic challenges during any league, tournament, or casual/recreational rounds, if any LCF bag tag holder(s) are on your card (in group).
The challenge does not need to be publicly announced or agreed upon before the start of the round, it is automatic.
Members may not deny this challenge.
Casual Round Challenges:
LCF members may casually meet at a course or agree to meet at a course/time to compete for bag tags in:
Head-to-Head (me vs. you) challenges.
Group challenges, where multiple players each put a bag tag at stake during the group round.
Members may not deny a challenge and then proceed to play a round (see forfeiture).
Proximity Challenges – Event or Tournament Play:
LCF members “competing in†a coordinated disc golf event (official or casual) may agree beforehand to compete for bag tags while playing in separate cards/groups/divisions for a given round. Example: “Let’s see who shoots a lower score in Round 1.â€
Exception; Any automatic challenge takes precedence over any challenge from another card. You must settle with your current card first.
Wins, Ties, and Exchanges:
The player with the lowest score at the end of the challenge round earns the lowest numbered bag tag among the challengers.
Bag tags must be exchanged immediately following the round.
In the event of a tie, the player who started with the lowest numbered bag tag will be awarded the lowest numbered bag tag. This may require some sorting in a group challenge.
Rematches:
Challengers who have just won, may, but do not have to accept/schedule a rematch challenge from a player that he/she has just beaten unless one of the following occurs:
1. Either player completes another, separate challenge.
2. One week has passed.
Exception; Rematches are overridden by automatic challenges that occur during a subsequent round of a multi-round event.
Eligible Tags:
Members may only challenge members who possess the LCF bag tag; no other bag tags are eligible to participate in challenges. You must have your bag tag with you to challenge or accept challenges.
Forfeiture:
Each bag tag belongs to the entire club membership and should be accessible to all club members. Any club member will be required to surrender his/her bag tag if:
He/she is found to be purposely concealing the bag tag.
Refusing and/or “forgetting†to carry his/her bag tag, especially to events where members are likely to be present.
Refusing automatic challenges.
Generally denying bag tag access to other members.
If you lose your bag tag, please report it immediately. You may then purchase the next lowest number bag tag available. Replacement tags, if available, will cost $5.00.
Rules are subject to change and the LCF directors will decide all disputes. The LCF directors reserve the right to revoke your bag tag at our discretion.
