Good evening.
Cheryl and I are super excited about the this event. This event will be on Saturday, 3/25. This will be a 1 round PDGA C-tier that will shotgun start at 10a.
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. If you have any questions or issues in regards to the tournament, please text/call Cheryl at 513-348-6140.
We are playing 18 holes at Heritage. The plan is to play the regular 18. When we get there in the morning, I will check to make sure that holes 13 tee pad is ok. That is the only one of concern. Heritage drains exceptionally well. So I do not anticipate many issues.
All course particulars are in PDGA live. The main OB is on/over the paved walking trails that weave around the course. Any standing water outside of the river will be deemed as casual relief with no penalty. This means, behind the water away from the basket. Your card should be in the discussion on casual water. This course drains better than most all local courses, so I don't think this should be an issue.
PDGA live code: wind (because it is going to be windy)
The schedule will look like this for the day:
915-950a check in at shelter
10a - Shotgun Start
Awards
Cards will be made up with pace of play in mind. Some cards will be mixed based on numbers in divisions. Pace of play is on each card. With a shotgun start and this layout, there is no reason for any card to get more than 1 hole behind. Please keep pace and be conscious about it.
Also, just a reminder, that any junior younger than 13 must have a parent/guardian on their card. There are many juniors now signing up in non-junior divisions, so we don't always catch this beforehand. Please advise and follow the PDGA guidelines on junior players.
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 8a the morning of the event. You can find them here:

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 40% per division by the PDGA. That will help you determine if you need/want to stick around. The Open players will receive cash/PayPal, and the AM's Crossover Cash. This can be exchanged for disc golf merchandise that we will have on hand. All Novice divisions are trophy only.
For those who are in the ACE fund, if no ACE is hit, we will do a throw off. This will be the first event we catch up with the technology age and send the ACE fund out via PayPal. This eliminates us having to go to the ATM and such. And also, it's 2023 time to do all cash payouts via 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 layout from round 1.
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
