About this tournament
Welcome to The Helix Open 2022, presented by Helix Disc Golf and supported by Innova Disc Golf. We will be playing at our beloved Palm Royale Country Club this year. This will be a one-day PDGA C-Tier event with two rounds. The first 18-hole round will be a shotgun start around 8:30am and the second round will start around 1:00pm (or approximately one hour after the last morning group has finished and submitted scores). For this event, we will be playing the same 18-hole layout both rounds (par-55) to keep it simpler than the Cotton Memorial.
This is a professional and amateur event. Professionals, females and juniors will be allowed to register one day earlier than the rest of the ams in order to encourage a more diverse field and keep registration a little less hectic. Amateurs will receive a player pack with a premium Innova disc and other goodies. We are keeping the registration cost down for ams this year and part of the entry fee for all players will go toward renting the golf course out for the day. Ams will be competing for trophies only, with at least 3 players required in a division to receive a trophy. Larger divisions will receive trophies/medals for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. Professional divisions will be competing for cash payouts—paid in cash at the event or via Paypal/Venmo if requested.
Tee sign sponsorships are available for all 18 holes. You can register early starting 7/25 with a hole sponsorship, it is an option on the registration page that you can select and pay as you register. Those not sponsoring a hole will not be able to register until open registration begins on August 10 and 11.
This course is walking only and it can be hot this time of year, so please plan accordingly. It is very disc golf cart friendly and caddies/spectators are welcome as long as they follow proper tournament etiquette. No dogs will be allowed on the course.
