About this tournament
1 round of play
This is a 1 day 2 round C-tier event at North Valley park in Inver Grove Heights, MN.
I will adjust division sizes if there is a need to based on registrations and unfilled divisions.
MPO and MA1 will play all long tees. All other divisions will play short tees on holes 2, 8, 11 (middle tee), and 14. For hole 11 if you land in the water you can advance to the next tee pad or play from where you went OB.
$1 ace pool included in entry.
Important update:
The city just let me know this week that the expected players to have a day pass in addition to the park rental fees for the park that I already paid. If I had know that originally I would have looked for a cheaper course to use. I was able to negotiate with the city to reduce the daily pass fees by 50% and I will pay for them out of entry fees that you already paid.
Everyone that was on the waitlist has been added into the event. If you were on the waitlist please check your email and pay the remainder of your entry fee.
We will be playing a 20 hole layout. I have marked the two temp holes that will be added to the course.
The first will be hole 6A will be between holes 6 and 7. Head up the hill on the path to the parking lot by the well house. The tee is currently marked with 2 flags and a painted line in front of it on the grass. We will be teeing from the parking lot. The basket is at the bottom of the hill on the front edge of the tree line. The basket location is marked with paint and a flag. Please walk back down the path and past 7s tee if your drive is at the bottom of the hill. We want to try to avoid causing any erosion.
After 6A you will play normal hole 7, then the second temp hole 7A. There is a painted Tee Box between 7s basket and the 8 short tee. 7A will tee from that spot and throw into the trees near the 8 long tee. The basket location is marked with paint and a flag.
After 7A all players will play from the short 8 tee for hole 8. All other previous tee assignments will stay the same.
I have added a 20 hole layout to UDisc with the Temp holes mapped out. I mapped the rest of the course as well, but I wasn't able to do it while at the course so it might be a little of for some of the normal wooded holes. If anyone would like to correct the hole mappings while they are on the course for the main holes that would be appreciated.
OBs:
Any Roads or Parking Lots.
Painted line on the left side of hole 1 (the line got a little crooked at one point so I repainted part of it. The first line you would cross is the OB line)
Over the fence on holes 2-4.
All Water.
Paths are not OB.
Amateur Payouts will be vended by Grunwald Disc Golf.
