WHAT'S AT STAKE: Bragging rights and a SWEET trophy.
COST: $2.00 per person for course fee

This annual event had has grown over the years.  It is to support the local clubs and local courses. It is typically the first event of the year where everyone has a chance to catch up with all their disc golf friends. This is a non-sanctioned event. Will this be the year that J-Town can place their name on the trophy?

Past Winners:
2007: Fox Valley Metro Disc Golf Club  
2008: DISContinuum Disc Golf Club
2009: Streamwood Disc Golfers Union
2010: Streamwood Disc Golfers Union
2011: Streamwood Disc Golfers Union
2012: Streamwood Disc Golfers Union
2012: Disc Golfers Union
Special thanks to J-Town for securing The Oaks.  

This event is taking place March 16, 2013 at the Oaks in Mokena. Sign-up will be 8:45AM to 9:45AM.  Tee-off will be right around 10:00 AM. Due to the nature of this event where there is not preregistration we will be asking team captains to have some rosters together before the event begins.

The event last year at Silver Lake in Wisconsin maxed out at 135 players.  There were 5 players on all 27 holes.  We are hoping for the same at Mokena. With 5 clubs if the player base exceeds 135 players teams will be limited t a roster of 27 players. Scoring will be the same as in past years.

All clubs are welcome to bring their bagtags to sell and promote memberships. We are also asking clubs to bring one or two CTPs. We are asking that the clubs run their own CTPs.

As this is a team event and not a sanctioned event, trashing talking and bragging are highly encouraged.  This is the seventh annual event and it has grown over the years, as has the number of disc golfers in Northern Illinois.

Well, the date is good for me and I always enjoy playing this event. Last year's Challenge with the great weather was a very fun day of disc golf.  Count me in. However this is like playing the exhibition matches at a high school tennis meet.  My round will not impact the team score.  Tom needs to hear from some players with a higher rating than 828.  The Fox Valley Board is already alive with players signing up.  Who is in?

Do you have to get a PDGA # to play this?

[pickax]

Players who do not have a PDGA # and a rating will be placed in the upper division unless I have a reason to place you in the lower division. If you have played previously in a PDGA event we usually have a rating for you that we use for placing you in the correct division.

But the short answer is "No, a PDGA # is not required".

For the sake of clarity. Its "Disc Golfer's Union" we dropped the Streamwood over 2 years ago in order to be more inclusive. Please take note. We are not confined by any one town or state. All are welcome in the Union! USA! USA! USA!

I am  planning on playing in this again, it was a blast last year.  

Can we renew our Discontinuum membership and purchase a new tag the day of?  I have not gotten around to doing that yet.

PDGA # 44640, Upper

I think my PDGA rating may need to be renewed as well.  I'll make sure to do that as well.
