Players Pack
TBD


Exact player pack costs will be taken out of the entry fee, nothing more! Our goal is to keep those costs around $15-20 per event. In the event our costs are less, the difference will be put into payouts.

Player Pack Opt Out
We're going to keep it going this year and give all amateur players the option to opt out of a players pack for a $15 discount off their entry fee!

Smooth Series : POINTS
3 points for playing
1 additional point per player beat (including ties. Ties for 1st place will give 1st place points to the winner and 2nd place points to all others)

The best 3 out of 4 events will be calculated into your overall points. If you played all 4 events, your worst event will be dropped.

Player’s who are forced out of a division due to a rating change can bring 50% of the points UP to their new divisions as long as they did not play that event in both divisions.If a player chooses to play both days, they will keep the points of the higher division regardless of their placement in the lower division. No points can be dropped to a lower division.

This year we are doing payouts only

Smooth Disc Golf is responsible for all refunds/cancellations.

All events will be following PDGA Guidelines for refunds.
