The following paragraph have been copied and pasted from our North Idaho disc golf club website. With NWDGN as a wider used location for information relating to Disc golf , here it is.
This idea has come up in the last few years. Scott and Jack W. spoke to me briefly about it at last Sundays Corbin work party. I am requesting feedback not on a winter series, but on a NORTH IDAHO DISC GOLF SERIES ??
We have Corbin and C-hill parks, and of course the mighty Farragut st park course's( and the land at Heyburn st park)
We have a few past TD's who maybe willing to assist others who may be interested in trying their hands at tourney directing. Kris Cummings did a great job with the fundraiser he held at cherry, Nate R ran his FDGA league, Ben S ran c-hill league . With a few more people this might be something who's time has come.
Please spread the word and chime in if this sounds like something you'd be interested in?? TW

To expound on some of the preliminary ideas we tossed about
:
•a monthy Club sponsored event visiting each of the local North Idaho courses during the spring/summer months
•one day, two round format; or it could be as simple as a single round
•non-sanctioned
•no sponsorships solicited
•no need for trophies, custom discs, player packs, etc. (although one batch of "North Idaho Series" discs could be a consideration)
•simplified divisions, if any
•payouts in cash, or could also make use of some Club schwag – or some combination of the two
•The Club has the essential setup for a tournament: we have a ScorePointe board, and Rapid Fire has tables and pop-up awnings available
•The Club would provide the underlying support: we have an insurance policy in place; the Club would provide scorecards, change funds, etc.
All in all it would be a very simple, low stress tournament for anyone to serve as the designated "Tournament Director", with the full support of the Club. Kind of a Weekly League event taken up a couple notches.
Just brainstorming at this point. I'm curious to hear what interest others may have in the idea
