1. Hole assignments are up and available to see on the PDGA Event page. It was done at random, through the PDGA group assignments feature.
2. At Check-In (7:45 – 8:20 AM) you will receive a bag that has these items included: Aluminum Mini-Marker, a Crew Keychain, mini chocolate bars, a bottle of water, a flavor pack for water, an apple, a voucher for $4.00 to Lucky Bucks (will be emailed to everyone after the tournament), a Disc Golf Network one-month free code, our sponsor list, and an invite to the Crew banquet. You will also receive one free raffle ticket for being in the tournament.
3. Raffle tickets will be drawn as we work on payouts at the end of the tournament. We will draw a ticket and the winner will pick a prize. We will then draw another and that person will pick a prize, and so on until we are out of prizes. You must be present to win (you must show us your ticket and match it with what we call out). If no one responds within 10-20 seconds, we will draw another ticket. If you bought tickets prior to the tournament, we will have those at check-in. You can purchase tickets at check-in as well.
4. Disc Dot has donated a few prizes and because of that we will highlight them and have a putting contest in between rounds for free! Finish your first round and come to the check-in table if you are interested in the contest.
5. CTP’s will be on almost every hole. We will have division specific CTP challenges. We will have longest putt and longest drive as well. Be sure to look at the PDGA live scorecard each hole to see what holes pertain to you.
6. We will do live scoring for this event through the PDGA live website. You will go to www.pdga.com/score and enter the code: apples to log in. For accountability, please have two people per card entering scores. If you are having issues with live, each card will also get a paper score card as a back up.
7. Please pay attention to the best way to get to your hole. Some of them can be very long walks if you don’t plan accordingly. We will do our best to explain at check-in where your hole is located and the best way to get there.
8. Player’s meeting is at 8:30am near check-in. Be there! Tee off is at 9:00 AM sharp!
9. There are 5+ trash cans out on the course. Please hold your trash until you get to one.
10. Restrooms will be the luxury portable restrooms… seriously, we rented nice restrooms for this year’s tournament. They will be near check-in.
11. Lunch break will be one hour from the last group that comes in. The Parks Dept. will be selling a $7.00 meal (Pork Burger, chips and drink) or a $5.00 meal (2 Hotdogs, chips, and drink). Cash is preferred but will probably be a card option as well. You are welcome to leave and grab something out too.
12. TD will post on Discgolfscene event page comments as to what time you will need to be back and ready to tee off for the second round.
13. Although the course is really cleaned up compared to last year, please watch your card throw to see where the discs go. There are still some thicker areas. With leaves falling, it is easy to lose your disc in wide open areas as they dig into the leaves as well.
14. Michiana Proshop and EM Dips will be vending the event, so consider buying some discs as well! All payouts will be done through Michiana Proshop gift cards. If you win the Ace Fund or 50/50, money will be sent via Paypal, Venmo, or some other online source. This eliminates the amount of cash we need to have on us!

The Crew Cup is just one week from tomorrow! Here are some updates:

Food- The Parks Dept. will be selling meals during the one hour lunch break. They are selling two different meals: 1. Pork Burger (which are delicious), chips, and a drink for $7.00. 2. Two hotdogs, chips, and a drink for $5.00. Please bring cash for these lunches as there may not be stable internet for credit card payments. Please consider buying lunch on site, although not required!


OB lines on hole 18 are painted as seen in photos. Other OB spots are road, parking lots, and sidewalks.


Red tee pad areas have paint on them to show the front of the tee pad as seen in photo. We left enough space either throw from the pavers or ground.


Holes 4 and 14 are the only other ones we will be finishing up this weekend.


U-Disc should be up to date for both colors. Please message me if something is off... sometimes it can be finicky.

THANKS!!

Hello everyone! Just a quick update:

1. Layout: We have decided the best event we can run is one with 18 holes rather than the planned extra three from the park course. We will play 4-5 players per card and are doing our best to provide spotters on holes that they will be needed. If you have been out there, you will notice it us MUCH more cleaned up, making it easier to find your disc. On hole 3, we will utilize the basket that is further to the right and under the trees.

2. Tee Pads: White tee pads are almost finished with gravel compacted. Hole 4 and 14 still need tee pads. Some of us will be out working Saturday and again most of the week next week. There is still a slight chance concrete will be in, but we are not expecting it to happen, this is why the tee pads are the way they are currently. I have walked the white tee pads on U-disc and set it up as an option for you to keep your score. Distances may be a little off as it was done via GPS from a smart phone. We will use a range finder to confirm distances before tournament.

3. Food: As of right now, the Parks Dept. is going to be selling food on site during lunch. You also have the option of going out to a local restaurant.

4. Raffle: Some have asked about when these will happen. We will read off raffle winners one at a time. As one name is called, you will have the opportunity to pick from what is left on the raffle table, and then we will call the next name, and so on. We will do this right when the tournament is over before we do payouts. You need to be present in order to pick your prize, or choose someone to choose for you, but please let us know who you choose so we don't have a random person snagging prizes :)

5. CTP'S and Vending: We currently have 18 CTP's and are looking for more! Thanks to Michiana Pro Shop for donating 9 discs! We also have EM Dips donating a sick Loft Hydrogen Putter- custom dyed. Both EM Dips and Michiana Pro Shops will be on site! All payouts will be through Michiana Pro Shops.

We are excited to have you all out! See you soon!

The Crew Cup Disc Golf Tournament Update


1. COURSE INFO:
a. LAYOUT: We will be playing the 18 holes of The Woodland Trail and 3 holes from Bixler East Park for a total of 21 holes each round. We extended this because of the high interest in this tournament. As of today, we have 77 registered with a total of 84 spots available. You will play holes 1-14 on the Woodland Trail, then walk over to hole 5 at Bixler East and play holes 5, 6, and 7. After playing hole 7, you will get back onto The Woodland Trail at hole 15 and finish through hole 18. This layout will be on U-Disc by September 25th. We will be mowing the course 1 week prior to the event.
b. TEE PADS: There will be two sets of tee pads. White and Red. Red tee pads will be used for FA1 and MA4. They will be leveled out and will have pavers/stepping stones. They will play shorter than whites with less gaps ahead of you. White tee pads will be used for MA 1, 2, & 3. They will be leveled out and will have gravel compacted with a rubber mat on top of the gravel. There will be spray painted lines that mark the spot you can throw from to prevent confusion, as they are temporary pads. I goal is to make a legitimate tee pad that won’t cause problems when throwing. We had hoped to have concrete in on the white tee pad areas, but due to time and cost we will not get to that point by Oct. 15th.
c. OUT OF BOUNDS/MANDOS: There will be no mandatories on this course. Out of bounds will be marked on the map (sent out the week before the tournament) and also will be included in the live digital scoring app. Please be sure to check for OB in the app before teeing off each hole. This course has minimal OB, but it is out there, especially on the three park holes we are adding.
2. LOGISTICS:
a. PLAYER REGISTRATION/SIGN IN: We will not accept walk-ups. This is a pre-register only event. Players who registered will check in at the maintenance building of the Kendallville Sports Complex (524 S Allen Chapel Rd, Kendallville, IN 46755) between 7:45 – 8:20 AM. At check-in, you will receive info on who has sponsored this event and a mini marker (Aluminum ‘Bad Apple’ mini). You will also have an opportunity to purchase tickets to our raffle items along with CTP, Ace Fund, and more. Raffle prizes will be drawn at the completion of round 2.
b. PLAYER’S MEETING & TEEING OFF: Player’s meeting is required to be at and will start promptly at 8:35 AM at the maintenance building. Because this course has some holes that are a little further out, we want to be sure everyone has adequate time to get to their holes and be ready to go. You will receive a two-minute warning announcement, then a tee off announcement. We will tee off at 9:00 AM promptly.
c. PAYOUTS & PRIZES: Payouts will be done through the Michiana Pro Shop. They will be on site. You will receive a gift card with the amount you won in payouts. You are welcome to purchase on site or hold on to it for a later time. CTP prizes will be given out at the completion of round two. Ace Fund and 50/50 CTP will be sent via Paypal.
d. RESTROOMS: This year we have rented out portable restroom. There are two restrooms with it and they are very clean and nice. The Bixler East Park restrooms will be open as well.
e. SCORECARDS/GROUPS: We will be utilizing the PDGA Live Digital Score Cards. We will also have printed paper cards if that is what you prefer. Two people on one card should keep score for accuracy and accountability. Round one will be a random draw on who is grouped together. You cannot request to be with any one person or any one starting hole. Round two you will be playing with those who scored closest to you. The top 4 scores from round one will play together on hole one and so on. You will receive your Scorecard group and hole number 1-2 days prior to the event. PLEASE plan the night before or morning of on how you can best get to your starting hole. There will be signage, but it can get confusing if you do not know the course. There are parking lots closer to certain holes so it may be beneficial to drive over to those spots after the players meeting. You are responsible for getting there before 9:00 AM. Please ask at check in if you need direction.
f. VENDORS & FOOD: Michiana Pro Shop will be on site vending this event. We are currently working on a food option for this event. We will most likely have an option on site for lunch. There are local restaurants in Kendallville nearby as well. You will have a 1-hour lunch break. During the lunch break we will have an optional putting challenge sponsored by DiscDot. It is free to participate and includes a prize to the winner.

I am sure I am missing something in all of this, but more information will come as the tournament comes closer! Thanks for registering for this event!!
