Welcome to the Spring Training Disc Golf Tournament!


PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE EMAIL. IT HAS INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW.


If you are receiving this email because you used your email when signing up another player for the event, please forward this info to that player.


DIVISIONS / DATES:

While I’ve run over 80 PDGA C & B tiers, this is the very first Maverick Disc Golf flex start event. Thank you for your patience if it shows.

I will be on site no later than 9am to allow cards to start.

Even though this is a flex start, this is a PDGA sanctioned event. By signing up in this event you agree to play by PDGA rules. Alcohol or recreational drugs are not allowed and will cause you to be disqualified. The course is on school property. Please do not abuse this so that we can return to Prairie Pass for future events.

LATE WITHDRAWAL / NO-SHOW

Refunds are available until 10AM Sunday, 2/26. PayPal and dgscene fees are not refundable. To cancel, text or call your name and division, with comment you are canceling to 785-764-2229.


PARKING -

Please use the school parking lot. There is no parking in the street.


RESTROOMS

THERE IS NO PORTABLE RESTROOM AT THE COURSE. Blue Valley school district that owns the property will not allow portable restrooms on their property. In order to have the restrooms in the school available, the fee would have made this event not feasible.


CHECK-IN

Check-in with Rob in-between the parking lot and hole 1 before you begin. You will need at least 3 people on your card, but not more than 5. You can create your own card or I can pair you up with a card. If you are a card of 4 and there is a solo player, I may add them to your card. It is OK to mix divisions on a card but be aware that some divisions use different tee pads.



SCORING

We will be using the PDGA digital scoring system. (This is not Udisc). To access it, go to pdga.com/score. Enter in the password, then your last name or PDGA number. You can then add other players to your card. I will have a few paper scorecards as a backup. You can also use udisc as a backup. However, to submit the scores, it needs to be done through the PDGA scoring system.

Password: prairie


CADDY BOOK

There is a map at the course parking lot. Regarding OB rules, we will use what the tee sign says. For some of the holes, the sidewalk is not out of bounds - the curb is out of bounds. In order to be in bounds regarding the curb, your disc must be touching grass. If it is leaning on the curb in the street but not touching grass, the disc is OB.

COURSE CONDITIONS

There are no known adverse conditions.

PLAYER PACKS

This is a no frills tournament. The only divisions that will receive a player pack is MA3, FA3, and all junior divisions. Those divisions will not have additional payout. All other payouts will be available at Maverick Disc Golf in Olathe starting on Monday.

The player pack discs are an assortment of discs from various manufacturers. Some are from previous tournaments, misprints, or clearance discs.

WATER


There will be no water on the course. Bring enough for your whole round.


ACE FUND

100% payout for anyone that scores a '1' on their card. If there are multiple aces, they will be split evenly between all players. If no aces are hit, all of it will go towards the Maverick Disc Golf Championship in September.


AWARDS / PAYOUTS

For any division that has more than 1 player, I will have First Place blue ribbons available to be picked up at Maverick Disc Golf store. All other payouts are redeemable at the store as well.


All payout vouchers for all Maverick DG vended tournaments in 2023 expire 12/31/2023.

PDGA POSTING

My goal is to have the 'official' results posted to the PDGA by Monday evening.

2/26 UPDATED OB RULES:CADDY BOOK - UPDATED


There is a map at the course parking lot. Regarding OB rules, we will use what the tee sign says with the following exceptions:
In all cases, over any fence is OB. Play from where it was last inbounds.
For some of the holes, the sidewalk is not out of bounds - the curb is out of bounds. In order to be in bounds regarding the curb, your disc must be touching grass. If it is leaning on the curb in the street but not touching grass, the disc is OB.

Wow, I was not expecting this many pre-registrations for a flex start. We WILL be accepting walk ups, however, if there is a line forming to start, pre-registered players will get the right of play first. So, basically, walk ups will need to try to work in where there is room.

Also - it would really help if everyone didn't show up at one time!, lol. I'm considering starting earlier in the day weather permitting. Won't make final decision until the week of.
