PLAYER MEETING DETAILS
ALL PLAYERS ARE REQUIRED TO CHECK IN BEFORE ROUND 1 AT TOURNAMENT HQ!!!!!
This is vital, as all players will be signing a waiver to acknowledge they are aware of the risk involved during the COVID pandemic. If a player chooses not to sign, they will not be allowed to compete in the event. These will be on each player card, and will be signed upon check-in.
There will be a short 15 minute Player's Meeting to discuss some of the special OBs / course layout rules for both rounds 1 and 2. This is primarily for Holes 4, Hole 2 Long (Island), Hole 3 Gold (for MPO, MA1, and MA40 only). OB sheets will be provided and also explain all of these rules in detail. A picture of this sheet will also be uploaded to the "Pictures" area for here if needed for reference.
Seeing as we are still required to wear masks when in groups, please be sure to wear a mask during check-in process and at any times where social distancing is not able to be practiced. Masks are not required during play, but can be worn if a player decides to do so.
As a reminder, Tournament HQ is off-site. The locations details are below:
Check in, break, and awards/payouts will all be handled off-site at Kiwana's Community Hall, located at 14685 View Drive, Newbury, OH. This is only about 5 minutes away from the course located right off Elm Drive, which is about 1/2 mile west off of Rt 87 (Kinsman) from the main park entrance. Elm Drive (which is located directly across from the Animal Hospital) ends right into the parking lot for this Community Hall about 1/2 mile down.
There will be signs visible from both directions on Rt. 87 (Kinsman) at Elm Street to direct players towards the HQ. There will also be a sign out-front, and one posted at the kiosk at the course as a reminder that check-in is required.
During the payout process for Am players, we will be allowing groups to come up for their payouts to avoid a large crowd at the payout area. This will be groups of 1st place from each division, followed by 2nd place from each division, and so on and so forth. This may make the process a touch slower, but we need to follow social distancing protocols.
Also, all Professional Payouts will be sent via Paypal to all who win cash. This will be done after the event.
There will also be a $2 ace fund the day of the event. All players who want to partake will need to pay in $2 and be sure to write their name on the list. If no aces are hit, there will be a throw off during payouts for the Ams, with the 3 closest winning, being paid out as 50%, 30%, and 20% for the three closest.
There will also be some add-on prizes during the event. During Round 1, each card winner will receive a Gateway Disc Sports disc that they have donated to our event. Those will be given out either before Round 2 or during payouts. There will also be 2 CTPs during the Round 1. One will be on Hole 13, and the other will be on Hole 14. Prizes are also Gateway Discs and a Lat 64 Tee Shirt. These are All Division CTPs. For Round 2, each set of tees (Red, White, Blue) will have CTPs. These will be multi-division, as some players from different divisions are playing the same tees. For the Red Tees, this will be hole 14. For the White Tees, this will be Hole 4. For the Blue Tees, this will be hole 17. Prizes will be an event custom stamped Lil Wizard.
I look forward to seeing you all this Sunday for a great day of disc golf!! The weathering looks great, with temps in the low 70's and no rain in the forecast!!!
