DDGA (Deaf Disc Golf Association) is a National Deaf organization for Deaf Disc Golfers. DDGA aims to expand the horizon across the nation with Nationals and Regionals as well with Local tournaments. Those Tournaments are intended for Deaf or CODA players only. The "Hearing" players (players whoever are not Deaf or cannot sign) cannot play in those tournaments. This Tournament is for players who are part of American Sign Language (ASL) community. Whoever is fluent in using ASL are welcome to play in DDGA sanctioned tournaments. The Tournament Director will have the final say in whoever is allowed to play in this tournament (as in being qualified to play in this DDGA sanctioned tournaments based on being Deaf and/or ASL user).

For those "Hearing" players who already registered by accident, you will be refunded, unless you are willing to donate to DDGA, in which DDGA will be greatly appreciative and will recognize your name on the sponsor/donation list of the tournament.
