Where did this event come from?
Based on the knowledge and experience gained from hosting the 2017 USWDGC and the 2021 Pro Masters Worlds, local organizers wanted to create an event that mirrored the feel of a PDGA major, even though it will be either an A or B tier event.
Located in the area historically known as "The Great Appalachian River Valley", The River Valley Masters will showcase the courses located in NE TN/SW VA - Harmon Hills, Warriors Path, Sugar Hollow, and Winged Deer.
This will be a True Amateur event for all AM divisions, featuring trophies for Top 3 in each AM division!!
Amateur players pack is sweet!!
Each Am will get -
The newest Upper Park bag, The Pinch Pro
An event custom stamped Kastaplast Berg
A event custom towel provided by "The Friends of Warriors Path State Park" group, which is a private organization dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Warriors Path State Park.
That is a $150 value for the $100 entry fee!!
