Jeff Robinson MA50 is playing Newcastle, Project 15 and Cedar Creek. Can you tell me what tee pads we will be playing on the three courses? Apr 2
Darrell Bankes Apr 6 Hi Jeff, can't tell you yet, each venue will be finalizing the event specific layouts later this spring/summer, we'll share them when we have them.

So, lets talk camping! I'll be there for the week with my tent trailer. My ideal would be camping at one of the courses, organized by the tournament. Is there anything like this likely to happen? ... show more ›

Darrell Bankes Apr 6 Hello Dietrich, we have multiple local campgrounds, we may have a few spots at Haute Goat too, to be finalized...Cedar Valley Campground is good too and between Haute Goat and Newcastle.
Dietrich Sider Apr 7 Thanks Darrell. I booked at the Escape Maze!
Roberta Ronald I know it’s early.. but any projections on the likelihood of waitlist folks finding joy in full registration? Possibility of opening spots? Can’t fault a gal for trying.. Mar 20

Matthew Vedova Are the layouts going to be the same for MPO/MA1? Mar 5
Darrell Bankes Mar 6 The layouts have not been finalized, this will likely not happen until summer.

Kelly Heslin Feb 22 Where will tee assignments be posted when you know them?
Jacob deVries Feb 24 Hey Kelly, if you go to “about” there is a PDF under documents which has the tee assignments. They also posted on social media if I’m not mistaken!
Darrell Bankes Feb 28 Thanks Jacob...been away and missed this one. Yes, the PDF is there...it was also posted on IG at @candgchampionship
Alex MOJTEHEDZADEH Hey I’m all ready in the disc golf tournament can u take my second one out please because second one says I’m on the waitlist, but I’m already in thank you Feb 8

Alex MOJTEHEDZADEH Feb 9 Thank u
Frank Ursino Darrell, if I need to change the shirt size can I just edit my registration or another way? Feb 7
Darrell Bankes Feb 7 Yes, if that is too painful, just ‘dm’ me…quotes needed…autocorrects to ‘do’…:)
Frank Ursino Feb 7 thanks!

Darrell Bankes Feb 3 That's a bit of a blanket statement there Greg. We, (I work for Innova Disc Golf here in Canada) are sponsoring this event to a significant value and will continue to support disc golf in Canada.

Darrell Bankes If you are still thinking of signing up, help us out and do it today, it would be awesome to get to 400 players on day one! Allows us all to get down to the planning for this great event! Feb 3

Now that we have almost 400 players signed up our group of organizers will start on some of these fi ... show more ›
Darrell Bankes Feb 3 We are eager to share the course assignments too. As you can see we have been collecting some input from players about the issue with some online polls.
Darrell Bankes Feb 3 It is safe to assume that the majority of players will play 2/3 rounds south of Peterborough, as 3/4 courses are located close to the 401/407 corridor.
Darrell Bankes
We have made a modest change to the settings to make the 'Canadians only first week' function better, technically it wasn't really at all even though we checked with the folks at DGS a few weeks ago a ... show more ›

Ezra Houser Will different divisions be at different courses on different days? If my friend are in MA1 can I join in MA2 or MA40 and hope to be able to carpool or camp out with MA1 guys? Feb 2
Darrell Bankes Feb 2
Yes, different divisions may be at different courses on different days, the logistics of allocating ... show more ›
Darrell Bankes Feb 2 There is always the option to switch between divisions you are eligible for if the logistics necessitate this for you.
Ezra Houser Feb 2 Thanks Darrell!
Mathieu Bernier Any suggestion for a campground nearby the courses? Feb 2

Darrell Bankes Feb 2 And to echo Dan's comment, we at Haute Goat will be looking into the possibility of offering a limited amount of camping if municipal approval can be garnered for this special event.
Darrell Bankes Feb 2 We actually have a great campground downtown Peterborough on Little Lake that should be open in September still. https://www.otonabeeconservation.com/conservation-areas/beavermead-campground/
Darrell Bankes Yahoo! We have a tournament! 14 minutes and we have 250 players! Feb 2

Darrell Bankes In case you didn't hear, the DGPT has just announced that the Canadian Championship will be part of the Q-Series for 2025, the only Canadian stop! Jan 31
Darrell Bankes Check out the Missed Mando podcast for an interview about the Championship with Gabe from P15 and Dan B from Cedar Creek. https://youtu.be/UoEfmNvGUUc?si=nVazgHVKDbxUQMH_ Jan 31

Conrad Norwood Jan 31 Enjoyed the above comment LOL ROBERT!!
Robert Vander Pyl I see that Newcastle is on a private ball golf course that in normal operations has golfers playing at the same time as disc golfers. Will that be true during tournament and/or practice rounds? Jan 23
Josh Saxe Jan 23
I can't speak to what the TDs have discussed with the golf course owners but the majority of the dis ... show more ›
Chris Beatty Jan 23 Yes, ball and disc golf are played at the same time at Newcastle as the disc golf course is 97% off the ball golf course. There is only one hole that shares a portion of a ball golf fairway.
Kyle DeGaust
Wait so part of the pass through fees is practice rounds that you may or may not be able to take advantage of? Why are we paying for things that we might not be able to use? Shouldn't the course just ... show more ›

Ken Lange Jan 23 Well that's good value for the money at least then. Just thought it might be a way to appease those that are balking a bit at the fees price tag.
Jacob Mainville Can we get a further breakdown of how that $22 is broken up for course fees per day Jan 23

That is the course fee set by the four properties for A-tier Tournament ready play, it will not be b ... show more ›
James Atkinson Any word on players pack?

For the cost of the tournament i imagine it'll be an amazing players pack!
Went to dglo last year and the registration fee was similar to this and the players pack was amazing! Merrell shoes/boots, gripeq bag, discs, and alot more.

Patrick Treude Jan 9 Wow Darrell! That was thorough! Great job!
Darrell Bankes Jan 10 For those from away the shores of Rice Lake are stacked with rental cottages/resorts, not my favourite swimming hole but I would jump in and the fishing is good, coffee on a dock, perfect.
Ron Lim Jan 13 Thanks Darrell!
