PARKING

Please park in the large parking lot between the baseball fields and football field. The information on Udisc is accurate.


DIVISIONS

This tournament is an officially sanctioned XC tier tournament. This means that both players on a given team must meet the qualifications for their division based on PDGA guidelines. For example, if an 800 rated player and a 905 player are on the same team, they must play MA2 or above. If an am is playing with an open player, they must register in the open division. Basically, both players need to qualify for the division they are registering for.


SUMMARY

2 rounds 18 Holes Shotgun Start
We are finalizing some plans right now, but we may include a temp hole or two depending on the registration numbers.

This tournament will use the Official Rules of Disc Golf from the PDGA for play

This tournament is set up as a fundraiser to benefit the Jackson County Disc Golf Club a 501(c)(3) organization. All proceeds will go directly to supporting disc golf in and around Jackson County Florida at Citizen's Lodge Park and another course coming soon!

We will use PDGA live scoring to keep score. pdga.com/live use code swelter25
