Kuhl Discs C-Tier #24

Brice Waters

You might want to check again in the morning. There is still two age protected spots that I'm guessing will open.

Zac Teuscher

thank you

Drew McGhie

Yes

Justin Houghton

Thanks

Noah Kuhl

Friday night, you will either promoted or refunded.

Noel Medina

With the two downed trees, Hole 2 & 5, will we still be playing these considering one blocks half of the tee pad and the other considerably impacts the desired landing area.

Alex Barber

Noel, yes we are still playing holes 2 and 5, since we have a full tournament we need every hole. Both holes are still playable, I'm sorry that the parks didn't get the trees taken care of in time

Alex Barber

Karen they absolutely were being offered. We are currently at a point where we only have openings on partial cards. We ended up with no female participation because of Women's Slosh event on the same weekend. I'm really sorry that it filled this way but please know we absolutely look forward to having larger female divisions at our future events, and it will always be offered!

Karen Redalen

Thanks for clarifying, I was searching and found the women's event and signed up for that one instead.

Alex Barber

Glad you got in there! Sorry we missed you!

Noah Kuhl

Probably not, but we will assess once we get closer.

Josh Francisco

Any word on assessment here? I just signed up, third on the MA3 waitlist. Would it behove me to just show up day of and see what happens?

Noah Kuhl

Josh, at this point. The only way to get in is if someone drops out in your division. We usually don't have no shows day of. You will know if you are in or not by Friday night.

Josh Francisco

If anything, I’ll play MA2 as well if those open up.

Gary Livingston

Allen, I need to withdraw from the tournament as I have a Memorial Service I need to attend to on that day. There should be a spot that opens up on the MA50+

Allen Heinly

Sorry to hear it Gary. I won't signup if my daughter is on a waitlist though and still no TD response. Guess we will move on. Cheers.

Noah Kuhl

Allen, we have division caps set in place because divisions are playing different tee pads. Yes, the tournament is not full. But Ma-2 is, so the wait list is the only option.

Allen Heinly

Looks like you can't even signup for fa1...thx anyway.

Noah Kuhl

Everyone is playing the standard 22 hole layout. The only thing that changes is which pad you tee off of, which I mentioned below.

Alex Barber

Long pads for the most part, I've heard of some recent tree damage that I need to go assess before making a final decision.

Taylor Wagner

Sounds good. Sorry, by layout, I meant which tee pads (my bad). I will assume the longs. Thank you both for the responses.

Noah Kuhl

Short tees

Garry Hanley

Hey Noah, just want to double check- MA60 plays the short tees in this tournament. I’ll be playing down there over the next couple weeks and want to make sure I’m playing the correct tees. Thanks.

Noah Kuhl

Yes, amateur age protected, juniors, and females are playing all short pads both rounds.

Garry Hanley

Thanks for the reply.

My thoughts on this. I haven't been able to find a good scene for junior disc golf. Most tournaments aren't catered to have juniors. And those that do have a junior division you get very few signed up to play and they will just get mixed in to play against the adults due to numbers. I would like to see more tournaments that focus on the juniors. The tournament I did with my young daughter was one at a smaller course where it was flex time and you chose your own card. So we played with another dad and his daughter and had a fun time for their first tournament. My son would sign up for the junior division but since there weren't many others usually signed up he would just play with adults at the MA2 level. So there is full competition there. He has had both good and bad experiences depending on who was on his card. Unfortunately he has been with some card mates who were not very junior friendly and made if a bad experience. So it is kind of a roll of the dice. So unfortunately there isn't much of a junior division scene that I seen so far. I have done small local tournaments with other friends to help create a fun, low pressure junior tournament but those were mostly amongst friends and weren't public. You can always follow your daughter on the course. I did do one junior national tournament with my son when he was 14 and had a lot of fun. There was a parent, grandparent or sibling with each of the kids. So it would be really cool to see more of this at the local level.

Alex Barber

Morgan, players in <= 12 bracket, or under 13 years old must be accompanied by a parent during tournaments. A lot of times tournaments don't get a full card of juniors, so your daughter would likely be on a card with the closest division playing the same layout as her, likely this would be the FA3 or FA2 groups. Kuhl Discs encourages everyone to participate that wants to!

Morgan Hay

We're all signed up - thank you!
