About this tournament
2 rounds of play
This is a 1, day 2 round, Amateur only B-tier event at Bethel University in Arden Hills, MN. This event will include a players pack as well as typical event payouts.
I will adjust division sizes if there is a need to based on registrations and unfilled divisions.
Layout will be announced once the event gets closer, but the plan is for everyone to play the same layout and it will likely be a long layout.
There is an Optional $2 ace pool that can be selected when you sign up. This will be a singular ace pool even if divisions are playing different layouts. If no ace is hit by a player signed up for the ace pool then the ace pool will carry over to the next event. If there is any ace pool after the final event of the year then the ace pool will be added into the Amateur Season Points Series payouts.
Tournament Payouts will be available on site or at Gray Duck Disc Golf and will expire on 12/31/23. Amateur divisions will be paid in merchandise credit.
Per Player Pass Through Fees:
$3 - PDGA
$1.5 - Sanctioning/Insurance
$3.5 - Course Rental
$1 - Season Series Payouts
This tournament is part of the Gray Duck Tour Series and includes series payouts for at the end of the season for all AM Divisions. Here is the structure:
$1 of every AM entry goes to season payouts for the division that the player played in.
Event Points Calculation:
1st = 100 + (0.1 x players in division)
Everyone Else = 100 - ((place-1) * 30) / players in division
Total Season Points will be equal to the Top 7 events for each player in a division.
After the final event of the year the Prize pool value for each division will be equal to the total number of players that played in that division for each event combined.
The top 15% of each division's season points leaders will be paid out based on the payout calculator found here: https://texasarmytrail.com/payout.aspx using the Payout to Lower Finishers set to +5.
