=======================================
~OTB Open - Amateur~
Welcome to the registration page for the
OTB Open presented by MVP Disc Sports - Amateur. The premier amateur event on the West Coast, “Amateur Weekend” will feature 3 days of fierce competition on the same course as the Pros! We'll again be supported by our fantastic title and presenting sponsors, Only The Best Discs and MVP Disc Sports, respectively.
~Making Space for Women & Juniors~
1000 Rated Productions prioritizes access to our events for women. In addition to lower entry fees, there will be a 14-day early registration period with no division caps! We’ll do our best to ensure a positive experience for all who attend with amenities such as women only bathroom(s) on the course and around tournament central.
~True Amateur Event~
This event will meet all criteria for a "true amateur" event and, as such, will be trophy-only. While there will be no traditional scrip payouts, our players’ packs are highly regarded and will be valued at $300+!
Exclusive for 2025, the winners of the MA1 and FA1 divisions will receive free entry into the 2025 PDGA Champions Cup, a PDGA Professional Major! Champions Cup will be held the weekend following the Amateur competition, on the same course.
> "Net entry fee" = Division entry fee - PDGA fee ($4) - Greens fees ($60)

~Redesigned Course and Event Layout~
In 2025, we’ll again be taking over the entire Swenson Park Golf Course property for both events. Leonard Muise of Whirlwind Disc Golf is working on a quite a few changes, many of which will be played by our Amateur field! The course will feature four layouts to ensure all divisions are challenged based on their skill level. MA1 and FA1 will play a version of the MPO and FPO layouts that will be used for Champions Cup!
