When
October 9, 2016. Check the calendar for the Ace Race in your area... or run your own ace race! To run an event, see the TD info page at http://discgolfacerace.com/tdinfo.html

Format
Two rounds of 18 holes, one throw per hole per player.

CASH OPTION!
For those who have already competed in a Discraft Ace Race, but who do not wish to purchase another package in order to qualify to compete in this contest, a side cash only side game is available. For $20, those players can use the disc of their choice and compete for a pool that will pay out 80% for all aces, and 20% for all metal hits!

Fund Raiser
Proceeds from this tournament will go to support "Ferris United Against Cancer."

Course layout
Holes are generally between 180 and 250 feet (55 to 75 meters).

Entry fee
$30!

Player package
A $65 value! The 2016 player pack includes two identical Discraft prototype discs made especially for this year's Ace Race, plus a premium Buzzz disc golf towel, Discraft classic Tee shirt, SuperColor mini, a reuseable score card. All included with your entry fee!

Rules of play
Players are required to use the player package discs, and only these discs. If a disc is lost, the player has the option of using the second disc from the package. Only one throw per player per hole. All players should have their own scorecards and mark "A" for aces (a hole-in-one) and "M" for holes on which they hit metal.

After all players in the group have thrown, discs are picked up and the group moves directly to the next tee. Players keep their scorecards for round two, using the next line on the card to record the round.

The Discraft Ace Race is fun for everyone.
The player with the most aces after 36 holes is declared the winner. In case of ties, the number of metal hits is used as a tie breaker. If a tie persists, a closest to the pin contest is then used to determine the event winner.

Prize package
2016 grand prize for each event is a Discraft merchandise package, including a bag, eight new discs and a Supercolor Buzzz trophy disc. Large events (150+ players, ask your TD!) will receive a CHAINSTAR BASKET as their grand prize! Events are also encouraged to offer an optional cash side pot for those who wish to participate, which is divided proportionally among the number of aces and/or metal hits.
