Consider these six statements:
1) You will be 40 or older in 2015.
2) You would much rather play disc golf competitively than watch somebody else play it.
3) You enjoy a challenge, and don't want to be babied.
4) You wish that your division was as well treated as any other Pro division
5) You would occasionally travel regionally, perhaps nationally, or possibly even internationally to play in an event that offered good value to your division.
6) You wish that there were some way to identify such events well in advance.
If most of these statements describe you, then you should consider joining the Divisional Tour Newsgroup. The purpose of this newsgroup is "to identify, promote and support exciting disc golf tournaments that offer good value to older players." To join, just send me ([email protected]) an email, and I will put you on our mailing list. You will then receive periodic updates and other communications of general interest to older players.
The initial updates will compare the premise of our newsgroup with that of the PDGA, give some simple guidelines to help you identify "senior-friendly" events, and comment briefly on the friendliness (or lack thereof) of some selected 2015 events. Later ones will share newsgroup input on locating low-cost housing alternatives to the Pittsburgh Worlds, and circulate other information of general interest to older players.
There is no fee to join. I do not share contact information with any third party, and I will remove your name from the mailing list immediately upon request.
