9:30 Round 1 Tee Off
1:30 Round 2 (Awards shortly after)

Players Pack and Payouts:
As part of registration all players will receive one Disc Golf Chicago Jersey (short sleeve). Additional registration fees will be going towards trophy costs, CTP + Ace Pot. Disc Golf Chicago is a 501(c)3 non profit organization, the rest of your buy in will help continue youth programming efforts. There are no payouts, this is a trophy only tournament.

Jersey Only Option:
If you cannot play but would like a jersey, we got you covered! Choose the “Jersey Only,” option and add in the comments if you would like to pick up locally or pay for shipping.

CTP ($3)+ Ace Pot ($2):
- This is covered through your registration fees
- CTP's will be division protected
- Ace Pot will apply to all divisions and cover both rounds

Players Meeting:
We'll be kicking off our day at the Rolling Knolls Pavilion (just down the path from the parking lot / tournament central). We'll have the Forest Preserve with us as a special guest, and we can all soak up the AC before our long day.

Volunteers:
We are looking for volunteers (non-tournament players) to help the day of with various tasks, including spotting on key holes to help keep pace of play. All volunteers will receive a players pack and lunch for their invaluable efforts. You can register through the normal registration link, just make sure it says "VOL" / "Volunteer" and you will be added!

Tentative Layout below. We are working with the FP to see if we can get some lines cleaned up and may be considering alt tees and/or alt baskets on certain holes for some divisions to improve playability and pace. Details to be confirmed
