We will call two minutes at 9:15 by sounding 2 long blasts a truck horn. Start will be called at 9:17 in the same manner with a series of short blasts. The woods are thick so be sure to "pass it along" when you hear it. This is a shotgun start. Your starting hole will be tentatively posted by 9:00 PM today (6/16/22) BUT MAY UPDATE BEFORE THE EVENT STARTS, It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to verify your starting hole, and to arrive at it accordingly. You should verify that no change has taken place tournament morning at 9:05 at the very least. MOST CARDS WILL BE FOURSOMES. If one person does not arrive, a threesome may proceed. NO TWOSOMES are allowed in a PDGA event. Refer to competition Handbook for how to resolve this situation. The event info, including starting hole assignments , is located at https://www.pdga.com/tour/event/60518 . . This is a public property, and you are expected to respect the community's investment of work, love and money and not litter, deface, damage or otherwise negatively impact the property. "No Negative Vibes''. As this IS a public park property, for the duration of this event, the No Alcohol/ Substances rules ARE in effect. Format - Singles stroke play. Sliding scale payout , from Trophy Only for Novice, and incremental increases as divisions climb. There ARE Trophies for all divisions and were ordered based on registration 5/02/22 First Only in FA4 and MA4, and up to 1,2,3 in other divisions. Scoring - It is our desire that every card uses the PDGA live scoring system. This is NOT the PDGA App. You access it by going to PDGA.com/SCORES . You will then enter event code DURM22. All cards should keep a second card for score verification. DO NOT FORGET - You MUST confirm your scores in the Live Scoring system at the end of your round before leaving the tournament area. LAYOUTS: BOTH ROUNDS : ALL DIVISIONS - WHITE TEES 1 thru 21, LONG TEE Hole 22 ONLY. Meal break will be 1 hour from the last confirmed card. Please make yourself familiar with the area before the event to save time. Round two tee time will be announced in the park and posted to the Fly Guy Disc Golf Am Tour Facebook page. Starting holes will be posted to the PDGA results page. Payout is a day of use voucher for those who qualify. If you leave and do not claim your voucher the day of the event it is forfeit. MPO Players - MAKE SURE TO VERIFY YOUR PAYPAL ADRESS BEFORE LEAVING IF YOU PLACE. Open winnings will be PayPal forwarded by Midnight Sunday 6/19/22. So that should be about it - we're going to have LOTS OF FUN, and I know I am looking forward to seeing you soon! Last thing - This is a PDGA event. That means PDGA competition rules of play, as well as code of conduct. If it doesn't belong in the park, leave it at home. Likewise, do not put me in the position to choose a player versus maintaining good relationships with the parks system - I'll sacrifice the player for bad conduct every time. A lot of work and cooperation goes into these facilities - and we cannot represent both the sport and the community in an ill light by breaking park rules and/or violating code of conduct protocols. Be familiar with the rules, and follow them. "I didn't know" is not an acceptable excuse. See you tournament morning
