About this tournament

This is a two-day, four-round, bring your own partner doubles event featuring alternating formats. The first round each day is best throw (each player tees off, etc and the team captain selects which lie to use). The second round each day is alternate throw with fixed tee (players alternate teeing off and alternate shots).

Saturday will be held at Grand Central Station. Sunday will be held at Golden Grove Farm and Brew.

This event is a USDGC Doubles Qualifier for teams playing in MA1 or FA1 divisions. Teams in these divisions will receive an additional custom stamped disc from Innova. The invite distribution will be as follows:

MA1 1-14 teams: 1 team qualifies
MA1 15-24 teams: 2 teams qualify
MA1 25 + teams: 3 teams qualify
FA1 1-5 teams: 1 team qualifies

All players, including pros, receive a unique players pack.

Teams must register for the division that both players are eligible to play in. For example, a team with an Advanced player and a Masters player must sign up as MA1. A team with an Advanced player and an Open player must sign up as MPO.
