I believe the hunt for a TD is on. I ran it last year but I'm probably heading out backpacking that weekend so won't be able to do it again. I'll be happy to help anyone with the PDGA paperwork and this tourney is REALLY easy to run.

Just let me know if you or anyone else would be interested in helping out


EDIT: TD found, thanks Kyle Sutherland!!! See the separate thread for the doubles announcement

Just signed up another Junior so hopefully you guys get one more before the weekend and we can have a division.

I just realized that I payed for him and wrote down my name, Taylor Erickson. The junior competing is actually Jordan Erickson if that matters.

Also, if there aren't enough to make a division, could someone let me know via this forum or a PM?

Thanks, looking forward to the tourney.

Awesome, thank you very much.

What will the course lineup be for Advanced and Open divisions?

[Taylor]

Sorry, I just keep coming up with questions.

Will there be separate tee pads for the junior division?

Open and advanced will play seatac,lakewood,seatac
intermediate,& Jrs will play lakewood,seatac,lakewood

Sorry, no alternate pads for Juniors.. but Sundays baskets at lakewood
will be shorter than on Saturdays.

As I expressed before it is a bummer that there are not more kids signed up for the Battle. I would really like to host a juniors only event to use the short basket pins like I did for the Lakewood Ace Run Challenge. Since that was my motivation for adding the shorter holes in the first place. Most of them are under 200'.
The struggle is getting enough of the younger generation hip to it.
There was some talk with a few fathers about hosting a Father/son dubs,
Or even a Jr. Pro caddy event. This would be where local pro players will share the teepad with four juniors giving tips,helping with disc selection,and playing along with them.
Since there are 9 holes in short this would be a easy number to deal with. Only needing 9 pros and 36 Juniors.
Having worked with a few schools and teaching an after school program I am a big fan of getting the kids more involved.
I will continue efforts in this department.
For now back to the Battle.. sorry it needs my attention..

[maynard]

Two questions before the Battle: 1. What time is the players meeting? 2. You stated earlier Masters will be playing Lakewood,Seatac,Lakewood. Is that still the deal? 3. And does that include the advanced masters? Ok thats 3 questions...
Looking forward to the Battle!

Hey I am traveling up from Oregon for the Battle, is there anyone that could stand to have me and a friend stay in their backyard? I slept on a hill in my car last year next to Seatac and people thought I was crazy. Thanks!

So heres the skinny:

If you are in Pro & Am Divisions,specifically:

open pro male (MPO) open pro master (MPM) open pro grandmaster (MPG)

Amateur advanced (MA1)Advanced Masters (MM1) pro woman (FPO)

you will start at Seatac for your first round Saturday morning.

Second round lakewood Saturday afternoon.

Sunday morning 3rd round Seatac.

Player meeting 9 AM

Start Time 9:30 AM

If you are in Amateur Divisions, specifically:

Intermediate (MA2) Advanced Woman (FW2)

Junior Boys (MJ3)

You will start at Lakewood Saturday morning for your first round.

Seatac Saturday afternoon for your second round

lakewood Sunday morning for your third round

Player meeting 9 AM

Start Time 9:30 AM

This is for both days at both courses.

Since some of you will be starting at Seatac we will give out all player packs

during the lunch break.

After Sundays first round the FINAL NINE will be played at Lakewood.

Lunch will be served at lakewood both days after the first round.

Saturday Paella is on the menu

Sunday Build your own tacos with a special treat for all participants.

Yes this year lunch is free, but donations and tips are gladly accepted and appreciated.

Sorry the movie posters were not ready before the event, the printer had major breakdown, so the whole

system was down. We do still plan to get a limited amount of them (50 to be exact) printed up in high gloss

large movie format, along with a full color disc and certificate of authenticity numbered 1/50.

So if you feel like owning a piece of history you can do so, just check back here periodically or in both stores.

As of today June 5th there are 80 players signed up. This means there is still room.

if you want to sign up please do so here.

We are looking forward to a great event, we hope you are as well.

See you on the 9th of June

CHEERS

Don't blame ya, its looking pretty schooweeeeet these days eh?

[Tanya Spence]

I DO, I DOOOOOO want to play SeaTac twice!!

I think that course is looking great and since it looks like I'm playing in a world of my own anyway... I would totally prefer the challenge (:

Nice work to the folks taming the beast that is... SeaTac!!

[Getty]

I played the Tac yesterday, and it looks amazing! The guys were out there with the mowers, and I just had to stop by and give them my regards.

Edited to say I can play and I've entered. Looking forward to limping around the courses with the rest of you seasoned vets!

[ericedge]

Registration's up over a hundred now. Several thousand rated Pros from out of town (must be heading to the Fling!). The Grandmasters division is blowing up, even got Kurt to come out of the woodwork! One more day to pre-register people.

Wow, this is going to be a fun weekend!!!

[DMajor]

Tried my hardest, but couldn't resist the tacwoodtac combo.
