Good morning. I wanted to get this tournament email out this morning. Cheryl and I are super excited about the Crossover Summertime Blues on Sunday, 6/23 at Osage Grove in Goshen. This will be a 1 round PDGA C-tier that will shotgun start at 9a. The following will be the most important details for the event. Please reach out to us if you have any additional questions or comments before the event.
PLEASE NOTE- We will be setting up tournament central close to hole 1 blue tee pad.
We are playing the original 19 holes with 0 temp holes for this event. The course flow in PDGA live will go like this for 1st round. It will be primarily BLUE tees, with a few adjustments. It will go: 1-13 (all blue tees), to 15 red, to 14 blue to 16 red, then 17-18 blue, and then old 1/19. If you play Osage Grove that makes sense, if not it looks harder and more confusing than it is. For the holes that have multiple baskets, we will be playing to the SHORT baskets on 6, 8, 14, 16, and 18.
This will be in PDGA live. All course particulars will be in PDGA live. The only OB will be surrounded by water on hole 6, and surrounded by water OR over the creek that separates 14/15. The rest of the holes will play any standing water or creek as casual relief. If somehow you land under a bridge, for this event, you may mark above your disc on the bridge. In the event you land next to barbwire fence, you do get 2 meter free relief from it.
PDGA live code: OG623
The schedule will look like this for the day:
830-9a player check in
9a - Shotgun Start
Payouts and awards
Cards will be made up with pace of play in mind. Some cards will be mixed based on numbers in divisions.
We are not going to have a players meeting. It is your responsibility to know what's expected for the day and be at your hole for the start of each round. Hole assignments will be posted by 9p the evening prior to the event. You can find them here: Crossover Summertime Blues 2024
If you decide that this event is not for you, to receive a refund, you must withdraw by noon on Saturday 6/22. The event is going to go on as scheduled, even if still at 12 players.
Following the round, please give us a few minutes to get everything organized so we can hand out awards and payouts. If you are curious if you are going to get a payout, it is the top 45% per division by the PDGA. That will help you determine if you need/want to stick around. AM's will receive Crossover Cash. This can be exchanged for disc golf merchandise that we will have on hand.
In 2024, all players are required to keep score. Cheryl and I have not been doing this accurately in previous events, so it's important we get it right. Score needs to be in PDGA Live or Paper. Those are your 2 choices. All scores must be submitted or the player not submitting will be assessed a 2 stroke penalty per PDGA. 30 minutes following the end of the round they must be turned in. So please submit and finalize on PDGA live or turn in your scorecards.
Everyone is in the ACE fund, if no ACE is hit, we will do a throw off. The winner of the throw off will win the whole ace fund. We are now doing ACE payoffs electronically by PayPal.
In the event there is a tie for first place in a division, the playoff will start on hole #1 until there is a winner playing the same layout from round 1 with the same course particulars.
This is a PDGA event, so everyone should be up to date on the PDGA's stance on what is legal and what is not legal. Please don't put Cheryl or myself in position to make a call that we don't want to address, or should have to address.
It's going to be a great day. Please contact us with any questions you may have!
Thanks,
Josh and Cheryl
