TD Exchange Program
If you are a local (within 90 minutes of Frostburg, Maryland) Tournament Director and are interested in participating in this event, please reach out to the TD about a "TD Exchange" option in which free entries of similar value are traded among TDs. This is just one way the ACDGC helps to support the efforts of area TDs.


Scoring
- uDisc will be used for this event
- Players must have created a free uDisc account and "check in" on uDisc on the day of the event
- One player per group will keep score.


Awards / Divisions
- In 2026, we're separating divisions much as we did in 2025.
- Generally, players will assign their own division based on their PDGA rating at the time of registration.
- If a player does not have a PDGA rating, the TD will help the player select a division.
- The TD reserves the right to make the final call on what division a player competes in for this event (we don't want a 900-rated playing in MA4).
- The latest ratings updates on Nov. 10 will be used to help put players in the right divisions.
- Minimum two per division (or players are subject to be reassigned).


Prizes
- See the pictures for images of discs and those who signed them.
- Our top new addition this year (so far) is a Paul McBeth-signed Zeus.


Results
- Results will be posted on the Facebook page of the Allegany County Disc Golf Club the same day as the event.


Purpose
This is a low-key, low-cost tournament designed to get outdoors, sling some plastic with friends (and friends yet-to-be), and work up an appetite for a meal back home (if that's your thing).


Notes
- Though a sanction-free tournament, all participants are expected to abide by the spirit of the official rules of disc golf while helping to provide a welcoming, nurturing, and educational competitive environment. The official rules of disc golf apply.
- Experienced players are to be supportive of newer players while maintaining the integrity of the competitive format.
- This event reserves the right to reject any entry, for any reason.
- Current club members must be in good standing; if in doubt about your status, please email [email redacted].
- We do our best to pair players who know the course with players who might not know the course.
