One week from today, Sunday the 28th of September, we will be playing three seperate Rounds of Disc Golf at Lakewood. There will be money changing hands and Ranking points to be won. If you want to pump up your Ranking you will want to get in on one or more of these Rounds.
Who can participate? If you see your name anywhere on the Roundbrand Leaderboard below this post you are invited. If you are a Regular you can invite a new player to join also. Beyond that we would like to keep this to people who have been playing with us for the past year.
You said three Rounds? Yes, the first is a singles 9-Hole Acepot. The second is a 9-Hole team round of best disc with 3 players per team. The final round will be an 18-Hole Singles Round.
Do I have to play all three rounds? No you do not. You can play one, two or three of the events. Play as much or as little as you want.
What does each Round cost and how do they pay out? Buy-in is $5 of which $1 goes to administrative cost and the rest goes to the prize pot. On the Acepot the entire pot goes to anyone to sink an ace. If we get no ace we will award money back to 3rd and cash awards to 2nd and 1st in a 1:2 ratio based on total entry money. If two players get an ace they split the pot. Payout is the same for the 18 hole singles round based solely on finish. For the doubles round 3rd place gets $1 back from their entry, 2nd place gets their money back and 1st gets the rest of the pot.
How will this affect my ranking? Normal rounds score at 4pts for 1st, 3 points for 2nd, 2pts for 3rd and 1 pt for any finsh below that. The Acepot Round will score 4, 3.5, 3, 2.5, 2, 1.5 and 1. The Triples Round will score 5, 4.5, 4, 3.5, 3, 2.5, 2, 1.5 and 1. The 18 Hole Singles Round will score 6, 5.5, 5, 4.5, 4, 3.5, 3, 2.5, 2, 1.5 and 1.
What time will each round start? The Acepot start at 11am. The Triples round will start between 12:30pm and 1pm depending on how quickly the Acepot goes. The final round will then start around 3pm while allowing for a food break between games.
Let me know if you have any questions and let’s get as many players out there as possible.
