About this tournament
Berks Disc Golf Club and Funky Runkle Discs is excited to announce the 3rd Annual Disc Golf Communities United Tournament will be back at Laurelain Disc Golf Course on October 8, 2023.
This will be a non-sanctioned fundraiser tournament to benefit course improvements and promote disc golf to our local youth. For those of you that have played the last 2 years, you know this is a great day of having fun, making memories and making an impact for others. We have donated over 180+ new and used discs to local boys’ and girls’ clubs to promote disc golf.
This year we will also ask that players bring a donation disc new or used to assist Amber Hoffman and the disc golf camps she conducts for our local youth. If you are looking for a strict and no-nonsense tournament, this is not for you. If you are looking for having fun, listening to music and making memories, I suggest you don’t miss out on this event.
2 rounds of 18 holes in a fun layout! Each player will receive a disc and that $15 from each registration fee will go towards payouts in each division.
www.funkyrunklediscs.com is adding $250.00 cash for CTPs and payouts. Generous donations have already been given by our local friends and business owners.

During round 1, all players will be playing permanent concrete tee pads to long baskets for holes that have long baskets in place.

Second round we will be playing concrete tee pads to the short basket placements or the holes that only have one basket. We will review the OBs and Mandos during the players’ meetings.
We have received numerous requests from players about carding with family and friends. We will adjust card groupings for the 1st round prior to the start of the tournament. 2nd round cards will be grouped based on placement in each division. Since this is a smaller tournament, 2nd round cards may be paired with players from multiple divisions.
