Competition Divisions:
Disc Golf is an individual age category competition which is divided into both men and women divisions.
Tournament:
Each participant will be allowed four throws. Competition is based on distance of the throw.
Format:
-
- The field will be approximately 250 feet long. The boundary is a 50 foot base line that widens out to 155 feet at 200 feet down field. Competitors throw from a foul line in the middle of the base line.
- Each contestant will throw four times in succession. Two practice throws will be allowed if requested.
- The disc may be rolled, thrown all the way in the air, or skip and roll at the end of flight – all counts in the distance. The disc has to come to rest inbounds to count.
- Resins, grip aids, and gloves may be used.
Scoring:
-
-
- All throws will be marked with a marker. The field judge will measure and record the longest throw.
- If during a throw the participant steps on or over the foul line, the throw will be declared a scratch and will not be measured. It will, however, count as one of the competitor’s four throws.
