About this tournament
1 round of play
From Chris Rodriguez at El Guapo Baskets:
I’ve been in the DG industry for the past 3 years and been playing consistently for the last 15 years. One thing I’ve noticed is a lack of good payouts for our women in our sport. I have 2 young daughters that will eventually play Disc Golf in a tournament setting but for right now its casual rounds as I teach them the fundamentals (Daddy Daughter Dates :-) ). My daughters have seen me play this sport regularly but have never seen women play so I thought "why not throw an all womens tournament?!â€.
Well, after much consideration I decided to hold my own all womens event sponsored by my business. I am going to commit at least $1500 added cash to our payout in order to entice NT pros to come out as well. My thought isn’t for it to be a time of empowerment or frilly, corny stuff. I want them to battle and compete for a good payout. :-)
Another added prize will be....
Which ever pro has the best over all score for the entire weekend will win my SPONSOR PACKAGE for the 2017 season.
This includes:
3 El Nino Putting Baskets and 2 El Guapo Pros
Total Value is $1250.
This will now be a Sanctioned event with multiple divisions. Most likely it will be an X-tier but with A-tier payouts. :-)
Pro
Pro Masters
Advanced
Am Masters
Intermediate
Recreational
Juniors
This will be strictly a Woman's Only Event. I'm going to do my hardest to bring in more outside sponsors to make it bigger.
It will be located in Central WA at the River Ridge Golf Course in Selah WA. it will be 2 days with 3 rounds of 18 holes hosted by the Yakima Valley Disc Golf Association.
Sponsors committed so Far:
