Pin High Disc Golf and The Fox Valley Metro Disc Golf Club are hosting the World's Biggest Disc Golf Weekend at Eagle Ridge Disc Golf Course May 2, 2009 from 10 am to 6 pm in Oswego, Il. 
The 19TH Annual World's Biggest Disc Golf Weekend will be a weekend highlighting the sport of disc golf. The day long event is aimed at introducing newcomers to the sport by offering free lessons all day long on the basics of disc golf and many other useful tips and takeaways as to the potential benefits of disc golf.  Regular and Novice Players are also invited out to take free lessons on distance driving, working the fairway and a special putters clinic to help players develop the skills needed to take their game to the next level.  The tournament is open to the public and pre-registration is not required. 
The World's Biggest Disc Golf Weekend is an annual event attracting more than 18,000 players in 200 different cities around the world.  The World's biggest Disc Golf Weekend is an opportunity to enjoy, discover and participate in the growing sport of disc golf while helping to raise money for local, national and international charities.  "We want to reach out to people who have only heard about disc golf and are curious," says the original creator of the tournament, John Houck.  The tournament fee is $10.00 with a portion of the proceeds benefiting several non-profit organizations.
The tournament is an opportunity for established players to sharpen their skills and for regular players to enter their first organized event.  Players choose their own start time from 10 am to 5 pm and may play with a group of up to 6 at a time.  Each player will receive a custom disc with the events logo and date.  Pin-High Disc Golf will be present with a large selection of discs from manufacturers like Innova, Discraft and Millennium.
Free classes will be available all day.  No experience necessary and all equipment needed to learn will be supplied.
An array of sponsorship opportunities are also available - including the opportunity to sponsor one of 18 holes at the course.  This year we will cap off the event doing a park clean-up walk through at the end of the day.  Volunteers will be walking through the park and picking up trash and recycling what is collected.  Any questions about sponsorship should be directed to David Youhanaie at 630 744 9940.
Singles play all day.  A special bring your own partner doubles tourney starts at 2:30 pm at $20.00 per team.  Available divisions are Novice, Recreational, Intermediate and Advanced.
