Hello everyone! We are excited to bring sanctioned play to the beautiful Snyder Park in Springfield! We wanted to get an email out earlier than normal so you can get in some practice rounds using the tournament layout. We will follow up with another email on Friday with any changes or updates. Player packs can be picked up before or after the round. The player packs will be mystery packs! You will receive two premium discs with a minimum value of $40 and a few are going to walk away with a collectible disc worth over $100! Good luck!
Tee off will be at 1pm. There will be no players meeting. We will be closing the roads to the inside of the park to ensure player safety and experience. There will be community members who will bypass our gates and best efforts to keep them off the road. Leave them alone. If a car is coming through as you are teeing off, let them pass. Our team expects every Disc Golfer participating to be respectful and courteous of community members who might be using the park at the same time.
This is a sanctioned PDGA C-Tier event. All players must play by all PDGA rules and standards.
We will have our proshop set up near hole 19 after the tournament. There we will announce division winners and payouts for AM divisions. The top 45% will receive payouts. Pro divisions will be paid out via Paypal within 3 days of the event.
Cards will be set and sent out Friday afternoon.
We are playing a 20 hole layout. The two added holes to the main layout are as follows:
1A). This will play after hole 1 coming back towards hole 2. The portable basket will not be placed until right before the round, but the tee box is already painted. It is a 250 tunnel shot with OB left behind and right. We will have signs marking tee-pads. DO NOT THROW FROM ANYTHING THAT IS NOT MARKED AS A TEEPAD.
19). We are playing the practice basket coming back from hole 18 to hole 1. There is a teepad marked on the road. OB plays very tight to the left, so throw carefully.
Here are the course particulars for the day. We are playing Hole 1 and 10 to the alternate position. We hope to have them moved soon as we are just waiting on the park.
