Exciting updates for this year's MCO...

Online registration is now open at http://www.madcityopen.org

Due to the delay in getting it up and running, there will be NO late registration fee this year. However, there will still be NO on site registration. The registration deadline is Friday, August 19th at 7:00.

Registration has picked up. About 20 players were added in the last 24 hours. As of now...

Pool A is about 33% full
Pool B is about 50% full
Pool C is about 25% full

There will be NO ace pool Why is that exciting? Because anyone who hits a tournament ace will receive a pair of Keen's brand new DeLaveaga disc golf shoes!!! These retail for $120. Glide just received our first order of them last Friday. They are sweet!!!

Finally, I'm very excited to announce that there will be a FREE CLINIC/DEMO featuring Innova's Jay "Yeti" Reading (3x World Putting Champion), Des Reading (3x Women's World Champion) & Discraft's Jon Drummond (Madison native & former WI distance record holder). It will be held on Friday, August 19th from 5:00-7:00 at Hiestand Park.

Thanks,


Mike

P.S. All three courses will be in the tournament layouts no later than this Friday, August 12th.

As of noon on Saturday, 8/13...

The entire field of 216 players is over 2/3 full.

Pool A...over half full

Register online at http://www.madcityopen.org

There is NO late fee this year because of the delay in getting online registration up and running.

Finally, it bums me out to report that Jay & Des Reading won't be coming. Des had to withdraw from the World Championships in CA this week due to injury.

However, Discraft's Jon Drummond will still be at Hiestand Park from 5:00-7:00 on Friday, August 19th for a free clinic/demo.

Thanks,


Mike
