The Nickel City Open - Presented by Twin Stacks

Welcome back to Twin Stacks; and this time, in beautiful summer weather on the Labour Day Long Weekend! We will have $4000 in added cash for pros and a minimum of $1000 in added value for all players; raising the bar for high level disc golf competition in Ontario!

There will be an AMATEUR ONLY ACE BOUNTY separate from the regular ace pot! Up for grabs will be a Prodigy Apex XL bag and some other goodies. If it is not hit, it will go to the raffle!

There will be a $500 cash ACE BOUNTY for all divisions courtesy of our sponsors. This is separate from the regular pot and Pound elevated Ace Basket!

This event will be a 2 round 2 day event hosted at the beautiful Twin Stacks Golf Course in Coniston, Ontario. We have heard your feedback from the 2025 event and have implemented numerous changes to ensure the event will be even better! Wooded fairways have seen some thinning and the ceilings will be raised. Our island greens have seen some improvements and will be less punishing. Several other course modifications are underway will be shared shortly.

We are pleased to announce that the Nickel City Open will be the final Ontario Tour Stop in 2026. The top 3 finishers in each eligible division will earn their spot to the Ontario Provincial Championships!
Players are required to be ODSA-current prior to the beginning of the event in order to qualify.

The event is currently planned to run with tee times to accommodate a larger capacity. However, depending on numbers, a Shotgun start may be utilized if the entire field can be fit on the course.*

All amateur players will find an NADGT item in their players pack and will be competing for spots in the NADGT National Championships in Austin, TX for both 2026 and 2027.
