Woman's Global Event-Channy-5/12/12
« on: April 05, 2012, 02:01:58 PM »
What: Woman’s Global presented by the J-Town Disc Golf Club a PDGA C-Tier Event
Where: Channahon Community Park, Channahon, IL
When: May 12,2012
Cost:
     Global: $20 for pro, $15 for am (Pre-Reg Only)
     Local: $20 for pro, $15 for am (Cashless pre-reg)


Sign-in from 8am-9am
Players Meeting 9:15
Tee off 9:30

Here is how it works:   First off this one is for the LADIES ONLY! Gentleman this is a great opportunity to caddy for your female friends, family, or loved ones and help introduce someone new to the game.   
The best way for me to describe this is two tournaments in one, Global and Local.  Players MUST sign up for both the local event and the global event to participate.  Each payout is determined by the event.  Locally we will pay out the top 45%+ in each division.  You can play in any division globally, but locally we need 3 to open a division please.  Globally the idea is that there will be enough for any and all age protected divisions.  Most info can be found at DiscGolf4Women.com
Any questions please ask.
Ray Hill (contact me): gratefuldad420atgmail.com or eight one five eight two three seven one six eight.

(Edited 5/11 to split local and global costs)

All females are welcome young and old.  Maybe your wife, girlfriend, mom, sister, co-worker, that girls you don't know how to ask out.. so many possible people can play in this one.. Who will you bring???

UPDATE:

Hi Again Women's Global Event Organizers,

This email marks that we are just over 2 weeks away from the Women's Global Event! Our registration has hit 450 players, which really sets the bar high for future Women's Global Events. As we continue to organize the event, player's packs, and update registration we wanted to touch base again to ensure you know about the recent updates to the WGE.

1. New Update: ALL WOMEN Will Receive a Player's Pack!! Regardless of when the ladies sign up, we'll make sure they get a player's pack! Click the link to see what's inside http://www.discgolf4women.com/index.php/Women-s-Global-Event/global-event-sponsors.html

2. We will continue to offer online registration until May 4th. Event Organizers can use their discretion if they will be offering "Week of" or "Day of" Sign-ups.

3. We are planning on creating a DiscGolfPlanet.tv show with footage covering the Women's Global Event, but we need your help with content! We'll soon be creating a page on DiscGolf4Women.com to inform you on how you and your local Global Event can be a part of the show!

Yes sir! There has been a major lack of communication with the PDGA sign up person and the lack of online pre-reg is killing me softly.  I have tried to call and email and no replies at all.

So I am taking "verbal" pre-registrations at this point and so long as the player pre-regs with the global side of things that is good enough for me and day of payment for the local is all good. 

hope that makes sense.. any questions please ask :)

Hey, i registered online for intermediate women last Sunday and it still hasn't shown up, but my credit card has been charged.  Not sure what's going on.  My name is Lindsay Truesdale #45902 if that helps!

Please note that there is both a Global Event and a Local Event.  What you registered for online was the global portion (Participants List).  Unfortunately, the PDGA does not notify us of who signs up for the global portion of this event and has not put up the online pre-reg for the local portion of the event.  I have since gone through their list and added everyone to our list.

That being said, all players will still need to sign-up for the local event on Saturday ($20 for Pro, $15 for Am).  There is not a non-PDGA member fee for this event. 
I have updated the original post to be more clear about the fees.

Thanks to the J-Town Disc Golf Club for setting this up. My niece Brittany played and had a fantastic experience. She said the guys running it where great and all the ladies she played with were awesome. I think she’s hooked! Thanks again guys for a great tournament.
