    2019 PDGA Am Worlds - YORK, PA

    Bowling Green Ams offered MA55 for the last two years. In both years, MA55 filled well before MA50. This year, MA50 didn't fill while MA55 was full. Since Bowling Green has a comparable player size to a Worlds event, the lessons were there. A single query of the player database should have...

    Timing/ out of sync

    The issue you describe is one I encounter if I find I am thinking too much about the drive. Usually happens when I neglect to warm up beforehand. Since I am thinking too much about the distance, how it looks, the things I can do without thinking become much more difficult. I am getting in my...

    2017 Amateur & Junior World Championships - Invitation Criteria

    Some tournaments, for the Winner, could hold a spot in registration for Worlds, same as the last year's winner has a spot held for them. 4 Regionals - 5 spots taken from the pool (Previous champion, 4 regional winners) I would have no issue with that. A slot for Worlds wouldn't be points...

    2017 Amateur & Junior World Championships - Invitation Criteria

    Personally I think since the announcement was so late in the year, an interim amount should be applied..possibly half, so Grandmasters for example would only need 250 to qualify. Then 500 2017 points to qualify for 2018 Worlds... Not sure I agree with 500 though. The winner of this years...

    Ran Off The Course By Mosquito's?

    We have had an issue where a jam in the drainage created a full pond at Shillito Park DGC in Lexington KY. The pond created was over 5 acres, and with no fish to eat the larva, prime mosquito breeding ground. In a case like that, where normally casual water leads to an outbreak, I can see it...

    2016 Am Worlds - Madison, Wi

    Not sure I can agree with that. The PDGA chooses who they do business with, especially in representing their major events. If you've ever taken a look at the Bid Process for a Worlds, there is a lot the PDGA demands from host organizations. There were issues last year with registration...

    2016 Am Worlds - Madison, Wi

    The only thing I'd like to point out is that HB Clark used Disc Golf United for Bowling Green Ams...larger field to register and had the same single start time for everyone to register.

    2016 Am Worlds - Madison, Wi

    Essentially, they removed the permissions from the website to keep it from being slammed. No one can view, no bandwidth being used.
