No OPEN division this time around. Especially since it is a non-KDGA event and it being my first tournament as TD, I am trying to keep it as simple as possible. I have talked with Brandon Mace about getting involved in helping out with the KDGA event in Hutchinson scheduled in August.

This tournament is meant to provide a more casual setting for less experienced tourney players. I am more interested in attracting local players to the sport and bolstering the spirit of an active disc golf community.

I am not a local, as I live 1.25 hrs away, but I have pre registred form this event. Sounds like fun and is cheap. I don't play a lot of tournaments. Playing in more tournaments that are close to home was a goal of mine for 2012.

I appreciate your enthusiasm. Even though my goal is to attract local players to our weekly summer league, I am always more than happy to accept registrants from out of town. I play with the Flint Hills Bag Tag League in Manhattan, KS and I have extended an invitation to fellow league members. Can't wait!

There's six of us coming up from Wichita. Five of the six started playing last August and are glad for a low-key and lower expense tournament to get our feet wet. It's going to be a Great Time!!

Thanks to Josh and staff for putting on this great event. The weather was great and by the looks of the turn out it was successful.

Josh,
Thanks for hosting this 1st annual Spring Invitational Tournament. It's always fun to help support a grass roots effort like yours.

Speaking of efforts, I would certainly think this "pre-league" event will indeed help your summer league attendance.


For whatever it's worth. I know at least 9 of the 65+/- participants had a good time (shown below), including myself.

Come to Manhattan. Play our courses.

65 people, wow! Excellent turnout! Great job Josh! If I hadn't needed to go to KC on Saturday, it would have been 66.

I know the OMG gorgeous weather helped matters, but hopefully, this is a sign of good things to come.
