9) Elevated Standards & Majoresque Requirements – Team LVC, Innova Disc Golf, Innova Factory Store, Millennium Golf Discs, and Infinite Discs want to bring you an event where everyone is treated like professionals, at an elevated standard equal to or better than the PDGA’s Major events. (Who else ropes three courses for an event?) With that being said, there are some requirements that may be different than that you are used to at other PDGA sanctioned events.
9a) Player & Caddie Dress Code - Is that required for PDGA Majors, and a PDGA waiver has been approved since this is a requirement for Wildhorse - All players and their assigned caddie are expected to dress appropriately and to maintain a clean and well-groomed appearance. CM 4.04 is being enforced for players and caddies (we are treating the event like a Major, something missing west of the Colorado Rockies) and a waiver is not necessary from the PDGA since Wildhorse is a private facility. At a minimum, the outermost upper garment cannot be a tank-top or t-shirt. Shirts that hang down lower than the bottom hemline on the player’s lower garment shall be tucked in. No ripped shirts, shorts, or pants are allowed, including unhemmed garments, or garments with torn or cut “vents” at the shirt collar. No offensive, profane, or obscene slogans or logos are allowed on clothing.
9b) Caddie Bibs, Caddie Quantities, and Spectators – Is that required for PDGA Majors, and a PDGA waiver has been approved - A caddie is a person who carries a player's equipment and/or assists the player during their round. Players may designate one caddie at a time during their round and they must wear the provided caddie vest. A caddie must be at least 13 years of age and must comply with the same rules & requirements as their player, including the dress code. The Player is solely responsible for their caddie’s conduct from the two-minute signal until the player’s scorecard is submitted. Any penalties for misconduct by a caddie will be applied to both player and caddie. Caddies are not part of the player group for the purposes of making group calls or rulings (also see Player Group). A PDGA waiver has been approved to enforce CM 4.03 at the LVC.
9c) Smoking Areas - The designated smoking areas for all individuals present include parking lots, streets and service roads, outside balconies, and within 30 feet of any restroom or port-a-potty. Pace of play rules still apply. Any open and visual possession of any product banned under the smoking policy will be treated as a courtesy violation, and violators will be asked to put away the product until after the round has concluded. A PDGA waiver has been approved to enforce CM 4.04 at the LVC.
