Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ): Do I have to be a PDGA member?
YES and no. Advanced players are playing in an A-Tier event and the PDGA requires A-Tier/Supertour players to have a current PDGA membership. Intermediate
You do not need to be a member, but non-members pay a $10 fee to the PDGA in order to play in any PDGA sanctioned event.

Is there a cap on number of players?
We are increasing the number of players this year to 144. "Pool A" will consist of MA1 and FA1 and will have a maximum of 72 players. "Pool B" will consist of all other divisions and will have a maximum of 72 players.

Where can I see more information?

I was wondering about hole positions, is it going to be all longs - all rounds or is there going to be some pin movement (**hope**)

Well besides the obvious of coming out and cheering on their favorite AM...
  • The Portland Art Museum has a special exhibit entitled 70 Years/70 Photographers
  • OMSI has a program called Nature Unleashed: Inside Natural Disasters
  • Fiesta Italiana is taking place at Pioneer Courthouse Square - You don't have to be Italian.
  • There is a Timbers game at 7:30 p.m. Saturday (vs Vancouver)
Isn't Portland Great!

How are the skins going to work? I was looking at last year's final 9 and with just the four of us there was a push on all 9 holes. Will all divisions be competing together for skins?

My appologies. I must have 'fat fingered' my entry form. My PDGA # is actually 22453, not 22454. I'm an Oregonian, never even been to NC, lol. And after looking at the reg list I think Mr Florence probably did the same. He's from Gresham, not CA. Once again, sorry bout that.

Open registration is now closed. Please join the waitlist if you want to play in this year's NAAC. There is no cost to be on the waitlist, however, when notification of an opening occurs you will only have a limited time to sign up for the event and you will need to pay at that time.

If you need to make changes, or decide you must drop from the event you will need to contact us via e-mail ONLY. The best e-mail address is tds@fireflydiscgolf.com
