About this tournament

PLEASE NOTE we have now added MA4 and FA4 divisions (17th April 2025) to give novice / first time tournament players an incentive to come along. Please avoid entering these divisions if you are an experienced player but haven't yet played in a tournament - you would most likely be better situated in MA2 or FA2

Vortica Disc Golf’s Martin Galley in collaboration with the Waimate Disc Golf Club are proud to announce the third installment of ‘Knottingley Giants’ at the beautiful Knottingley Park and Arboretum in Waimate. Another fun and challenging wintertime NZDG tour event coming your way soon in South Canterbury.

PLEASE NOTE Waitlist players who are promoted to the registration list must pay within 24 hours of receiving their email notification or will forfeit their promotion.

NB Every attempt will be made to run according to the scheduled times. If extreme weather conditions arise, we reserve the right to adjust tee off times and or reduce the number of holes played.

We also reserve the right to move players to more suitable divisions if required.
