- The point series is a collection of 5 PDGA C-tier events, in which points are accumulated to qualify for the final non-sanctioned cash payout event. The 5 sanctioned events will be flex starts to meet the growing demand of participation in PDGA events in WNY. Each qualifying event will have a player pack for all am players, pros will be paid by PayPal and trophies will be provided for the top finisher(s) in each division.

-$5 from each participant will go toward the finals payout.
-$2 from each participant will go to total points payout during the season (1st-50%, 2nd-30%, 3rd-20%)

- In the event no aces are hit at an event, the ace pool will carry over to the next event. Players must pay in to the ace pool for each event in order to qualify. If an ace is not hit at the 5th event, players will throw off after their round and closest shots will win (may be divided by divisions if the pool is large enough, TD discretion).

- Points are awarded based on your finish within the qualifying event. A player will receive 1 point for playing and 1 point for each player they beat. Bonus points will be awarded for top 3 place finishers (1st place - 3 points, 2nd place - 2 points, 3rd place - 1 point). Divisions must have at least four participants to be awarded points.

-Due to some divisions that fill quicker than others and a larger number of participants in other divisions, we reserve the right to expand divisional tee time slots based on pre-registration.
