About this tournament

Rusty Ratings is back!!
The scholar withers away in the library, studying his books over a long winter. As spring makes its way, the scholar frantically seeks PDGA-sanctioned tournaments to shake the rust.
They need not seek further.
Shake off that rust like a scholar at the Rusty Scholar in Cranbrook!

Rusty Ratings Schedule:

April 13: Rusty Ratings I | Rusty Scholar
April 20: Rusty Ratings II | Rusty Springs
April 27-28: Rusty Ratings III | Rocket Bear
May 4-5: Rusty Ratings IV | Rusty Nugget

How does it work?

The CVDGA, with the help of local clubs, are hosting a point series over the span of 4 weekends in the early spring. The series was created as a way to get some PDGA rated rounds early in the season while easing players into competitive disc golf. The series consists of three low-cost tournaments, and the Rocket Bear, one of Western Canada’s fastest-growing events, is now a B-tier event!

New for this year:
Rusty Springs is replacing the Rusty Raven, to help establish and promote the course in Radium.
Rusty Nugget will be a two-day event at the Golden Disc Golf Course and Up the Creek.

$5 of each registration goes towards your division series total, with the winner taking home the pot for all 5 tournaments.

REGISTRATION CLOSES AT 10:00pm the night before each event

Players Meeting starts at 8:40am

First-round starts at 9:05am

The second round starts at 1:05pm


Prizes and Payouts:
Tournament-specific payouts stay within each pool!

Pros: Spilt amongst the top 40%

Amateurs: Each player will take a prize from the prize table with an average prize value of over $20 per person.

Players will pick prizes in order of where they finished. All of the 1st place finishers will choose their prize simultaneously, and the second-place finishers won't be far behind. So don’t delay if you find something good!
