Players,
The Great Eastern Amateur Cup (GEAC) is 2 rounds of 18 holes PDGA C-Tier event at Tyler State Park DGC in Newtown, PA Saturday 8/15/2025.
Players should sign in between 8:30am and 9:10am. Sign in is at pavilion near Holes 1 & 19. Some hole assignments may need to be adjusted so look again in the morning at
https://www.pdga.com/tour/event/91817
When you sign in, we will have tables set up with amateur player’s pack selected items.
Each card must have everybody keeping score. One person must keep score via the PDGA website and the others any other way you want. We have paper scorecards.
We have set up layouts on the PDGA site. PDGA.comscores. Code will be provided at players meeting.
Hand sanitizer is available for your use before you touch any merchandise in the store.
Keep an eye on where you land. You only get 3 minutes to search for your disc before it is officially lost.
Two-meter rule is not in effect
Bring plenty of water; and this may be a good time for this year to wear sunscreen & bug spray.
Projected payouts can be found at

The exact numbers will change but this will give you an idea of what to expect; if people drop from your division, then the payout will be less. Top ~40% of each amateur division will receive a store voucher.
The B.S. Bochantin Upshot store will be open all day. We accept Venmo or Cash.
For any first-place tie breaker playoffs will be Holes 1, 2, 18 loop.
For Ace Pot, if someone hits an ace then they get the $110 sent to them via paypal. If multiple people hit an ace, then they split the pot.
The standard course rules (OB/mando/etc) and additional items are all in play; see the scoring PDGA site for all those notes.
Friday, we walked the entire course. I saw bees/wasps/hornets on every hole. The nests are the real issue. In many areas we have circled nests with blue flags. These are all no penalty areas where you must mark your next lie outside those areas. We suggest using a pole disc retriever to get your disc.
If you need to contact the TD at the event my number is 267-756-3839
