I am reluctant to announce that we will be going back to a Shotgun Start on Saturday July 15th. May it be over confidence, lack of registered players, or delusions of grandeur LOL.
Players are asked to Check In at the scheduled time. Tournament HQ will be at the Top of the Main Parking Lot. An EZup with the SVDGOpen Banner will be flying.
I do believe Staggered Tee Times would be a better concept with a larger field. I wanted to eliminate the long wait on lunches and try and get players back out onto the field to be able to enjoy their second round while not getting "cold" during the wait.
Staggered Tee Times with the amount of players would only drag out the day longer for some. A shotgun start will allow for a quicker day with the amount of registrants as well as allow the opportunity to keep the registration open longer as well as allow Day Of registrations.
I want to thank you all that have signed up in hopes of the Staggered Tee Times and look forward to trying it maybe next year with a larger field. As a token of my appreciation I am opening up the $5 OFF per registration for the remainder of Registration for each player.
If you did not get a discount at Registration, you will be paid back $5 at Check In on Saturday.
Also due to low numbers, I am opening up for the first time, Cashless Pre Registration for all players as well as Day Of Registration.
This is still going to be an awesome event with a Free Lunch and a Sunday Long Distance Competition for all Divisions sponsored by Sheetz. Borderline Discs will also be sponsoring a Putting Competition before the awards ceremony.
The Zuca Cart just arrived and we will be raffling it off to one lucky player. Each player will receive 2 Tickets for the raffle in their players pack. Player Pack value is $45!!
I always look out for the player and again apologize to those that were looking forward to this innovative tournament style. I am also issuing refunds (minus paypal fees) to all players that are upset with the last minute change.
Thanks Everyone and it looks to be an AWESOME weekend for some Disc Golf!
