We hope everyone had as much fun as we did. What a great day.

First, we capped the event at 100 players. We had to turn away 5 teams total at the event. That's not something we ever want to do but having 6 player cards makes for a very long day and we are unwilling to sacrifice a quality event by over filling it. This is one of the many reasons preregistration is so critical for our sport. Our Sport is growing rapidly and our reach with players is too. Events are going to increasingly fill on Preregistration and to play an event it's going to become increasingly important to sign up early. It also makes the event much easier to operate and smoother for everyone.

On the the fun stuff!

Two aces were hit from the Open/Advanced/Intermediate ace pool.

The first by Team Chubb Disc Golf member Andrew Cornwell on hole B!
The second was hit by Patrick Vitale on hole E!

Those two split the ace pool of $130.00 for $65.00 each.

No ace was hit for the Novice/Rec pool and a throw off resulted in a player which our exhausted CEO forgot to write down walking away with $100.00 in ace funds. I know, I know. Rookie move.

We collected $130.00 for the Open/Advanced/Intermediate 50/50 ctp pools.

$65.00 from that pool will go to directly to Elwood Disc Golf Enthusiasts in the next few days.

The other $65.00 was collected and the CTP card is currently MIA. I will have that information soon.


The Novice/Rec divisions 50/50 CTP pool was $95.00. We rounded up so we didn't have to mess with change and the CTP value was $48.00. That card is also MIA but will be found when we unload the van later today or tomorrow morning.

$48.00 of that will go to the Elwood Disc Golf Enthusiasts club.

The total we contributed from this event to the EDGE will be $113.00

Next year we will likely change the format a little. Here's the thought process. We had limited interest in a Mixed division. We had many wondering about a novice only division. It's a quickly growing division in Indiana. If it continues to grow we need to think about a novice only division. We also had some questions about age protected divisions. That may be something we modify for the 3rd annual.

We still have 363 days to plan, but we like to get ahead of an event so it's a better planned day.

Next year we do away with hole 19 for better flow.

Thank you all for coming and understanding a few errors due to the TD getting to play the event. It's rare, but needed. less
