regarding baskets....what makes a basket catch better
saggier chains
more chains
light chains

angle of chains

really never understood why some are said to catch better?
 
One thing that's big is an even distribution of chains so that it doesn't have big holes for the disc to slip through.

Also, while frank spoke of the practical use of the sph, he didn't mention the towell tip:
Get a golf sized towell, and while focusing on late acceleration, snap the towell at someone with their back facing you. If performed correctly, instead of a butt hit, it should turn to the right then fade back toward the balls.

These are things decided by the TD of the tournament. Usually there are 4 rounds at the course, two on each day. That being said, you would need to email the TD and ask them for clarification.
