Post by Jason Southwick »

Bill & Michelle Holmgren Proudly Present

The 501 Newcomers Ball

Saturday, November 26, 2016 / 501 Disc Golf Course, 501 Old West Brookfield Rd, Warren, MA 01083

Tournament Director Jason Southwick, Co-Tournament Directors Bill Holmgren and Emily Louvitakis

Description: A bring-your-own-partner best disc doubles tournament where each team has one player who has never (or almost never) played in a tournament before. The format is designed to introduce new players to tournament play in a low-stress atmosphere.

We're also happy to present a new disc golf course to the area.

A local pizzeria representative will be taking lunch orders in the morning.

Format: Two rounds, Round 1 on the Blues (longer layout), and Round 2 on the Greens (shorter layout).

Cost & Prizes: $50 per team. $10 per team will go toward player packs, trophies, and general expenses. $40 per team will go to that division's top-half payout in Marshall Street Gift Certificates.

Schedule: Players meeting at 7:50 a.m. First round begins promptly at 8. Lunch, round two approximately 1:00, followed by awards

Maximum number of golfers: 72, or 36 teams.

Four Divisions: Am/Pro & Newcomer, Mixed (guy and gal), Newcomer & Newcomer, Century

Registration: http://www.discgolfunited.com/disc-golf ... rn_id/4254

Hey Jason,

Just tested and it worked fine for me. 17 players have registered so this does not appear to be affecting everyone.

Can you please have them screen shot what they are experiencing? Or simply instruct folks having an issue to contact us directly? I can help them register and learn more about the issue and the possible causes.

They might have cookies or session turned off as well. If they are blocking it, their cart may be perceived as empty and they are redirected back to the event listings screen.

It would have been brilliant if I had somehow communicated to people signing up for this tournament that the DGU registration form doesn't have fields for two people.

I should have told everyone to put one name in the First Name field, and your partner's name in the Last Name field.

But I didn't do that, which pretty much confirms my lack of brilliance.

So please let me know the name of your partner, once you know it, in an email to jason@marshallstreetdiscgolf.com or right here.

Thank you.

Can someone tell John Williston that he's in. I can't seem to reach him.
