Come play the MVP Glitch World Championship Qualifier at Campton Hills (aka James O. Breen) Disc Golf Course and pick up some sweet limited edition discs by MVP brands!
Please click the "Follow this tournament" button above to receive news and developing info about this tournament.
Campton Hills is a short, moderately technical wooded 9-hole course, ideal for testing your skills with the MVP Glitch and its brand new Axiom and Streamline cousins, the Pitch and the Parachute! Most holes are under 200', but with narrow and bending fairways along with abrupt elevation changes atypical for Illinois, you don't want to let your guard down or you'll be fighting your way out of the woods back to the fairway. See course map in the Images section of the About page.
This will be an 18-hole competition (two consecutive rounds of 9 holes). A short break of 15 minutes or less may be permitted between rounds.
Every GWCQ MPO and FPO division winner will earn free entry into the 2024 Glitch World Championship to take place at the legendary Maple Hill Disc Golf Course in Massachusetts on Friday, Sept. 13th. The Glitch World Championship course layout at Maple Hill will be designed, once again, by Simon Lizotte! Now YOU have the opportunity to compete against the best Glitch throwers on the planet, on the best course in the galaxy, for a chance to be crowned the best in the world!

PLAYER'S PACK
All players will receive a player's pack containing the 2 discs, and potentially some other small surprises yet to be determined.
- MVP Glitch in Plasma Soft Plastic - Hybrid catch disc / Putter
( 1 | 7 | 0 | 0 )
- Axiom Pitch in Plasma Soft Plastic - Hybrid catch disc / Putter
( 1 | 7 | -0.5 | 0 )
The retail value of the players pack meets or exceeds the registration cost!
ONLY TWO DISCS?
If you feel that variety is the spice of life, you have the option to purchase the hotly anticipated Streamline Parachute! This disc is so new they haven't even assigned it flight numbers yet, but as another hybrid catch disc, I'd wager the numbers will be similar to the Glitch and Pitch, but with no overmold to distinguish it. Yes, you can also use the Parachute during the competition.
ALREADY HAVE THESE DISCS?
I asked MVP Circuit Events just to be sure, if you'd prefer to use your trusty beat-in Glitch, Pitch, or Parachute (how did you get one already?), they will be legal for use in the competition.
PICK YOUR OWN TEE-TIME
09:30 AM - 4:00PM Check-in and player pack pickup at the park entrance.
You must select one of the available tee-times during registration. Cards resulting in fewer than 3 players may be asked to regroup with other cards, or be accompanied by an assistant TD during play. Tee times are spread out throughout the day to accommodate schedules and to mitigate course congestion. If you are unable to find an available time slot that works for you, don't hesitate to contact me, I will do my best to accommodate your schedule.
PARKING
- Very limited. Please do not arrive more than 45 minutes prior to your selected tee-time to help ensure parking availability.
TOURNAMENT RULES
- This will be an 18-hole competition (two consecutive rounds of 9 holes). A short break of 15 minutes or less may be permitted between rounds.
- All players may only use Glitch, Pitch, and Parachute molds, however these do not need to be your player pack discs if you already own any of these discs.
- Out of the park, over a fence, on or over the street is Out of Bounds, 1 stroke penalty.
- Out of bounds penalties are to promote safety. Do not throw a disc if it is possible it will hit someone if it goes off target. Wait a few minutes until other people are a safe distance away if necessary.
- 3 minute rule for lost discs in play (PDGA guidelines), all players should help find a disc that went astray. When the group search for a disc begins, set a timer for 3 minutes. If unable to find within 3 minutes, the disc is declared lost (for sake of score-keeping). Player must throw again from their previous lie and take a 1 stroke penalty in addition to the original throw.
- There are no hazard penalties for this course, play it where it lies if not OB.
- Win or lose with a good attitude and have fun!
AWARDS
- "Every GWCQ MPO and FPO division winner will earn free entry into the 2024 Glitch World Championship to take place at the legendary Maple Hill Disc Golf Course in Massachusetts on Friday, Sept. 13th."

WHERE'S MY MONEY GOING?
- Like my previous events, this is intended to be a zero-profit venture in the spirit of spreading the love of disc golf. Any funds collected from registration fees and add-on purchases will be invested in enhancing your enjoyment of this event with added player pack items, prizes, raffles, etc, to be finally determined when registration closes and final balances are computed. In the event of excess funds discovered after the event, they will be rolled forward into a future event or donated to a worthy cause.
NOTICE
- This is NOT a closed-course event. The park will be open to the public during the round to other disc-golfers, families, dog-walkers, etc. Be courteous to our fellow park patrons!

There are no plans for new baskets for this course that I am aware of. The baskets are in overall acceptable condition, though the chains could use a little love on a few of the baskets. I've been considering different options to improve the quality of said baskets before the competition, replacing missing chains, etc.
