Hello Players, the Foxwood Open is only two weeks away. We just uploaded the four images, two course maps and two course rule sheets. Please take the time to review them before the tournament. If we make changes we will remove these and replace with new versions.

Below is a copy of the email we sent to all registered players on July13, 2021:
Hello Foxwood Open Players,

Can you send out the map/hole rules & breakdowns as a pdf?
The ones posted here aren't great to read - and it'd be great to print it out for the tournament.
Thanks,
Good morning Patrick, I didn't notice that the uploaded resolution was below par, I will email them out to everyone this morning. Thanks for letting us know. Darrell

Hello. Is there only one tee pad for all divisions? I've never been to Foxwood before and I'm curious what to practice if I manage to get out there before. Thanks
Hi Chad, every division plays from the same tee’s. White is all cement pads, red is either flagged or staked currently
Hi, the course maps in the photo section are quite accurate, we are re-marking them on Red today, and hopefully getting some of the temporary turf tees out there too.

Hi Sean, Adam and Darrell. Just injured my self and can’t play. My spot might be better for someone on the wait list. Is it too late to withdraw?
Sean O'Reilly August 31, 2021 at 4:03pm
Section 1.03 will be applied for those dropping from the event now.
To be a little clearer, the Competition Manual for Disc Golf Events for the PDGA. Apologies for the lack of clarity.

Could you update the picture for the red course showing the aerial photo and the hole layouts. Thx.
We're working on the final details for the layout Patrick. Will have that in the next few days.

We have just opened up registration again for the Foxwood Open. With a few late withdrawals we want to give more people the chance to play. No fee for waitlist registration this round, however we will be selecting players from the waitlist in a manner that allows us to balance out divisions.
Mike O'Keefe August 24, 2021 at 3:27pm
I just noticed that I have a pay 70$ by my registration and I was wondering what that is for thought I paid my registration in full when I originally signed up
Hi Mike, you paid to be on the waitlist when you originally signed up. Now that you have been promoted from it, you owe the balance of the fee.

Assuming that's a no?
Apologies Kyle. Communication is my responsibility and I’ve been on vacation, out of the province. This slipped by me.
At the moment, the cap will remain in place and we may revisit it in August as the tournament gets closer
Thanks for following up, and keep an eye on the page as the tournament draws closer. Very little activity at the moment for players withdrawing
Kyle Pitman June 26, 2021 at 6:19pm
Wondering if is still possible to get on a waitlist?

Below is a copy of the email we just sent regarding the rescheduling of the Foxwood Open due to covid restrictions:
Hello Foxwood Open Players
The 2021 Foxwood Open was shaping up to be a great tournament for the May long weekend. We have 172 players that are keen to come to Baden Ontario to compete at this fabulous facility for this PDGA A-tier event. Golf North is keen to host us again this year and Grand River Disc Golf has been working hard to help make this event a success. We also ...

Hello, I just registered RAG Purple. I am third on that division waitlist. Based on previous tournaments, is there a likely chance that I will be able to play?
Paul
Hi Paul, I am not involved in organizing this event. I am pretty sure that the waitlist for this particular event is independent of division. That means you're #19 on the waitlist for any spots that open up tournament-wide.
Hi Paul, we will promote anyone from the waitlist in order of where they stand on the waitlist, it will not be based on where you stand within your division. While the waitlist is lengthy, there is always a chance you could be part of the event. Keep an eye out for the Foxwood Series leading up to the main event in May.

Good morning, as of now the tournament has 168 registered players and over a dozen players on the waitlist. As most of you know the Ontario government has listed disc golf as one of the permitted outdoor small group activities allowed during the lockdown. To this end please get out and enjoy some disc golf but do so safely and while following all additional covid protocols. For those near Baden keep in mind Foxwood is open for disc golf only now but you do have to book tee times in advance.

We feel like we're caught up on refunds. If you need to be and have not. Please reach out.
In your case Trevor, its current till the end of Feb, it needs to be current till Dec 31st to qualify. Once it is, we can make the refund
Willie Atkinson January 12, 2021 at 1:15pm
If on waitlist and no spots open up, I assume money refunded?
And if we get in, we pay the tournament fees minus the 50 already paid?
Darrell Bankes January 12, 2021 at 2:18am
All I have to say is wow and thank-you for trusting us with your long weekend. We will all do our best to bring you a great tournament!
Hi Darrell, when i registered I underestimated my rating and now that I played a few tournaments I am two divisions too low can i be moved to the under 900 division? Or will that wait list me?
