About this league
DGLA: Michigan Cooperative Point Series - Summer 2011
The Disc Golf League Association (DGLA) is proud to host the 2nd annual, Michigan Cooperative Point Series – Summer, (MiCPS-S) for 2011.
The MiCPS brings leagues and players closer together to exchange ideas and grow the sport of Disc Golf. Through the use of Disc Golf Scene all the scores, pictures, videos and chat from all leagues and players come together, enabling all the players throughout the state to see who is doing what, what each league is up to and what is new at each of the courses. Growing the sport of Disc Golf together and coming together to crown the Michigan State Disc Golf League Summer Champion – what a season!
MiCPS-Summer 2011:
Sunday April 17th – Saturday August 13th
Leagues can always run outside the MiCPS dates but MiCPS points will only accumulate for rounds played between these dates.
New League Cut Off Date: June 15th 2011 – last day to add any additional leagues to the MiCPS-S 2011.
Leagues Coordinators need to Opt in to the MiCPS - Once your Summer league is online send us the request to join with the link and if you have a preferred HLW date we will try to accommodate that as well, in order of request, otherwise they are randomly assigned. Double Points baby!!!
Cost: There is no fee to be in the MiCPS-S 2011, you just play league rounds in participating leagues and your scores are automatically included. You must have a Disc Golf Scene profile which is also free.
New this Season:
Based on player's and league coordinator's ideas and comments and the continued devotion of the DGLA and DGS staff during countless disc golf rounds and hours at the our local brewery/// I mean, hours of board meetings, the following improvements will be implemented for the MiCPS-S 2011 season.
1 - Points calculation updates:
A - Scores must be entered the same as leagues determine payouts; If Divisions are used for payouts than scores must be entered by division. If handicaps are used for payouts then the handicap adjusted scores must be entered.
B - Point Calculation now takes into account League Size - three levels are defined; 4-19 players, 20-59, and 60+ players. The points awarded are different for each group. The smaller league rounds will get a guaranteed higher point total, the middle size league round are calculated as they have been for the last two PS and the larger league rounds have a Max point total per round - Details can be reviewed at www.discgolfleagueassociation.org
C - Cali - If there is one Cali in a double league they are counted as two players but if more than one team is Cali than they are only counted as one when calculating point totals. This ensures leagues can have Cali rounds with multiple Cali teams, but the point totals are accurate based on the number of actual players that played the round.
Note- As always leagues can use their own points system or no point when entering league rounds, as the MiCPS points are calculated independently, allowing league more flexibility to continue with their legacy systems or try new ones for their individual leagues.
2 - Points will only accumulate during participating league rounds; there will not be a Grand Finale event for final points at the end of the season. We will have an event to celebrate the season and crown the Mi Disc Golf League Champion and other awards but for those who can not travel they will not be penalized for not being able to attend.
3 - DGLA will also be awarding some MDGO, Mi State Championship berths throughout the MiCPS-Summer season. More ways to secure your berth and compete in another great Michigan wide disc golf event.
* Also New This Season *
Disc Golf Scene is implementing monthly awards based on MiCPS-S rounds for that month. That’s more DGS Bling for your profile.
Summer Aces: Worth 25 points – League Admin – this is automatically calculated so if you want to use a different point system for your individual league Aces you can.
Highlighted League of the Week will be announced based on when leagues join.
Remember the MiCPS automatically keeps your best two rounds per week (Sunday - Saturday) when calculating your MiCPS total points. This is automatically recalculated when ever new scores are posted or scores are updated. Get out and play as much as you can to increase your skill and maximize your points but if you are limited to how often you can play your goal would be to try and get just two rounds per week.
There are more leagues than ever so get out to new courses or new leagues and see what is going on throughout the state. Try to hit the Highlighted league of the week to maximize your points. Don't over look the smaller leagues - they tend to incorporate new ideas faster, have a really strong friendly group feel and you get introduce to the new courses with the locals who know them best.
I also highly recommend making it out to one of the large leagues as well to experience the energy of all those players coming together at one time, yet in a slightly more casual environment than a tournament. Bottom line, get out and play often!!!! & Enjoy.
As a player in the MiCPS-S you represent the core Michigan Disc Golf players and you can really help make this sport better. Help pass along the Disc Golf etiquette that makes rounds fun and fair for all. Encourage new players and pass along some tips to help others improve. Bring a friend out and expose them to the sport. If you pack it in, pack it out - or at least make sure it makes it to a trash can. Keeping the courses clean is critical to keeping our courses. One of the biggest arguments to closing a course or making it pay to play is the course up keep - mainly trash pick-up. We have naturally beautiful courses let's help keep them that way.
