24th Annual Mid-America Open

Join us for the 24th annual Mid-America Open Disc Golf Tournament on Saturday and Sunday, July 12th and 13th, 2008. This PDGA B-tier pro and amateur event will be played on 3 beautiful and challenging courses in Columbia. Download a registration form here.

For registration form click here (http://www.cdgc.org/images/MAO24_Registration_Form.pdf)

We anticipate fielding advanced, intermediate, and novice divisions in the amateur ranks as well as multiple pro divisions. All contestants will play 4 rounds of golf, and there will be a final 9 for the top 4 players in the Open, Masters, and Women�s divisions. All amateurs will receive a players� package, and we�re adding funds to the purse to guarantee generous payouts for all divisions. Continuing our Mid-Am tradition, women play for half price. For example, Open Women players will pay $45 to register, but their prizes will be based on the $90 registration fee for the Open Men�s division. We also have done our best to keep low registration fees for novice and junior divisions.

In addition to great golf, we are planning other fun activities over the weekend:
� Doubles tournament on Friday afternoon starting at 1 p.m.
� Regular in-round CTPs
� Ace fund covers the entire weekend � if not hit during a round, we�ll have a throw off for it
� Ring of fire and other games of skill for pride and prizes
� Mini tournament on Saturday evening
� Great barbecue and d-golf party Saturday evening
