ALL PLAYERS PLEASE READ:
This event will be played under the PDGA platform but will not count as a "sanctioned event" on your player page. This is what we know in full transparency and why some decisions have been made. It will run very similar to the test D Tier status we used last year.

1. Most importantly for tournament staff/player experience we get to use PDGA Live Scoring. That's huge for the organization of the event and how smoothly things run. If you have tried to run a 240 person tournament before using paper scorecards, it's pretty brutal. This is so big and helps build off what we got to do last year.

2. Because we get to use live scoring and the PDGA platform, all results and live standing for the event will be viewable on the PDGA page, this will also allow us to post tee times as soon as we can at the conclusion of each round, you won't have to wait hours to figure out what groups you are playing in or what time you start the next round. It will also help awards be done immediately following the completion of your final round, not hours after.

3. We do need insurance to make this event happen with Douglas County Parks. UPDATE: We will not be using PDGA Insurance, there will be no non-member/non-current member fees charged but instead insurance costs will be split evenly between all entry fees. This will be a private insurance policy that is purchased through a different company from the one that does PDGA events.

Whistlers Bend Doubles Shootout staff is responsible for all refunds/cancellations. ALL PLAYERS ARE RESPONSIBLE TO READ THESE REFUND POLICIES. By registering your team, you agree to the following policies.

-Any team who drops out before June 1 will receive $200 of the $260 entry back
-Any team who drops out between June 1 and June 15 will receive $150 of the $260 entry back
-Any team who drops out after June 15 will receive no refund unless their spot is filled by a waitlist team. If it is filled by a waitlist team, the team dropping out will receive $100 of their $260 entry back.

Teams that drop will not get players packs

This policy is in effect for all teams and is in place to make sure the tournament can stay as organized as possible and we do not have to move tee times around once they are posted.

Tee sign sponsorships/other event sponsorships are non-refundable.
