Players Pack
Custom Smooth Series Disc and an additional item

You will also have the option to choose a previous player's pack in case you missed it or want another, while supplies last. (Discraptor or Flightowel and mini)

Exact player pack costs will be taken out of the entry fee, nothing more! Our goal is to keep those costs around $15-20 per event. In the event our costs are less, the difference will be put into payouts.

Player Pack Opt Out
We're going to try something new this year and give all amateur players the option to opt out of a players pack for a $15 discount off their entry fee!
