UPDATE 5
The Hart ski hill is intending to have the kitchen open and available for the tournament. This will include both Saturday and Sunday. Please consider supporting the ski hill by buying lunch, as they are essential to the continued success of the course. (note that they are a licensed establishment, so a cool down adult beverage is a great idea).

UPDATE 4.5
Paypal has been sorted out, registration is now open again.

UPDATE 3
We have now secured discs for the tournament. The players pack will have the MVP Circuit Challenge Discs included. Full details have been added to the player’s pack section. Due to timelines and shipping, we have had to pre-purchase discs, which will limit our total players to 60.

UPDATE 2
We have secured a title sponsor (Thank you McElhanney) for the event and will be pushing through regardless. We are in the process of determining final disc selections and ordering, as shipping will be our big concern.

UPDATE
Trilogy has delayed the option to open registration. We are investigating other options and hope to have details finalized and registration open by May 11.

Welcome to the Prince George McElhanney Challenge. Please read through everything carefully as there are multiple options available to everyone, as we want to make the event as accessible as possible.

If you are unfamiliar with the Three Disc Challenge format, it is a variable format tournament with the primary feature being the three mandatory discs. As part of your player pack you will receive three discs (TBC). Through the whole tournament you are required to use the provided discs, and no other discs. This has the benefit of providing newer players with a suite of discs to take home, and challenges experienced players to take different lines with discs and lines they may not have previously considered.

Events:
Junior (<12): Saturday 09:30 - 11:30.
Singles (13+): Saturday 14:00 - 17:00 (we will be prompt with start times, possibly even pushing forwards, as the ski hill is hosting a wedding reception in the evening, and we need to be cleared out.)
Doubles (13+): Sunday 10:00 - 13:00

Singles Divisions:
- Mixed - Competitive (MCom): For all players who want to partake in a more competitive division. This division will use the standard gravel tee pads. If you have played the Hart course before and typically shoot +10 (65) or less, please use this division.

There will be an optional ace pot available to all players. A separate ace pot will be held for the singles and doubles portion. No distinction will be made for divisions.
