disc golf is fun, but you've all done that...some of you should be signing up for the Crokinole tournament Saturday night...it's the only chance you might have beating these pros at a disc sport...the Robinson's are playing as a team, same as Babcock and Buhr - it's only $20 and we only have space for 9 more teams!

The Innova Rip is only 7 weeks away...if you are still keen to play please sign up, we have a few spots in the FPO and MPO divisions available. After the August long weekend here in Canada we will likely tighten up the registration and continue to promote people from the waitlist. The MA1 division waitlist is largest, we may add another 4 spots at that time to help alleviate it.

Diameter Open is now the Innova Rip Equipped by Diameter.

Innova recognizes that the game of disc golf has a vibrant following in Canada and enjoys massive support from an active disc golf community. The company sees such great potential in helping to grow the game, reach new communities and support a higher caliber of play that it has decided to become the lead sponsor of the DGPT Q-Series event at Haute Goat. Innova Disc Golf along with Diameter’s support are committing the resources needed to what will be a great weekend of disc golf with a host of amazing professionals coming to play in Canada this September. These include Team Innova players Martin Hendel and Jeremy Koling. It is exciting to see Diameter sponsored players such as Ezra Robinson and Dustin Keegan coming too. Along with them we have current world Champion Isaac Robinson of Prodigy and Discmania team members Gannon Burr, Gavin Babcock and Alden Harris making the Rip up to Canada.

We’re so looking forward to the Innova Rip and not just to showcase a level of play that demonstrates the best in the game these days. We also want to say thanks to all those Canadian players and fans who are such enthusiastic supporters of our discs, DiscCatchers, and other merchandise. We look forward to Ripping it up with all of you.

In response to a question posed earlier today, since deleted, but that I wanted others to see, regarding the ratings cap change:
When we first opened registration on Groundhog Day we had ratings caps that are lower than they are now to encourage players to sign up. This was an effort to ensure regional players had a chance to sign up early, support the event and help plan their seasons. We are truly excited by the volume of players that signed up and that gives us the confidence to commit more resources to enhancing player and spectator experience. As we did design the Diameter Open to be a top tier event for touring pros we made the decision to raise the cap again earlier this week for the pro divisions so that spots would still be available when they start finalizing their schedules and look for high caliber events for the ‘off weeks’ on the DGPT. The Diameter Open is on the ‘off week’ between DGLO and the GMC, and geographically is halfway between the two, and has TPWDGC and USDGC spots up for grabs. This will be one of the final qualifiers of the year for the USDGC and TPWDGC. We expect more touring pros to sign up in the near future once the DGPT gets started and players look towards the end of the season and realize this event will be an ideal opportunity to visit Canada, play a great event, win some cash, try for a USDGC and TPWDGC spot and develop their fan base north of the border.
