About this tournament
This is a women's team event. Teams are made up of four women each.
THERE IS A 3500 RATING CAP FOR ALL TEAMS. This means that the combined rating of all four of your team members cannot exceed 3500. This is a one-division tournament, so please select GENERAL for your division.
Ratings for the event will be set as of the PDGA February Ratings Update (2/14/2023). It does not matter what your rating is on the day of the event; it only matters what your rating was as of 2/14/2023.
This is to prevent last-minute issues with teams no longer eligible the week of the event.
If a player on your team has never received a PDGA rating, they will be assigned a rating of 725.
This is subject to change pending advice from the PDGA. Note if it changes, it will only go down, NOT up.
The $200 entry fee is for the whole team. The cost is $50 per person.
PLAYER PACK (ALL PARTICIPANTS):
Diameter Apparel Jersey

This event is modeled after the format used in the National Collegiate Disc Golf Championships. Teams of 4 women will play two rounds of Team Doubles Play.
What is Team Doubles Play?
Doubles is played with two sets of teammates, one ODD, one EVEN. The ODD set will tee off on every odd-numbered hole, while the EVEN set tees off on every even-numbered hole. After the tee shots, the team chooses which of the two lies to play. From there, the set that did not tee throws their two shots. Again, the whole team decides which lie to play from and the set that teed off would throw. That alternating process continues until the hole is complete. On the next hole, the corresponding set of teammates according to the hole number, ODD or EVEN, would tee off no matter which set putted out on the previous hole. This format allows for each player to tee off the same amount of times and for teams to play as a whole. Each hole has two teams playing together as an eight-some.
During lunch and after round two we'll have fun side games, including our individual and team putting championship, a new accuracy game, and a few more fun activities.
This format generally runs fast, and with it being a one-day two-round event, we hope you can squeeze us into your 2022 schedule for the second Women's Only Disc Golf Team event.
