C-tier tournament.

I'm very happy to annouce that there's a tournament in Mokena this year! This will be the first PDGA sanctioned tournament at Mokena since Illinois State in 2007. My thanks to Bruce for getting his foot in the door, and to Mary Beth @ Mokena for being a class act.

The Oaks is a fabulous course, with mature oak trees, and grass fairways. Three tight technical holes thru the woods add a little variety. With a total of 27 holes in all, it provides both challenge, and beauty. This course was featured in Flying Disc Magazine.

There is a $2 per person course fee for this tournament that goes directly to the Mokena Park District. It is already added in to the tournament fee.

Pre-registration is highly encouraged. By pre-registering, you help us run a smoother tournament. Pre-register at: http://www.acesandchains.com/node/793

Day of Registration (if spots are available) and Check-In will be between 8am-9am both days. Please check in when you get there.

Players meeting will be held at 9:15am. Tee off at approx. 9:40am. Tournament headquarters will be at the pavilion by the baseball fields. Instead of going in the main park entrance, use Mokena St. and proceed to the parking lot at the end.

Tentative division schedule:

Saturday:

Recreational
Novice
All Am Masters divisions
All Women's divisions
All Jr.s

Sunday:

Pro Open
All Open Masters
Advanced
Intermediate

Tournament fee is $32 for AMs, $52 for Pros. $10 more if you are not a current PDGA member.

sweet,  Mokena tends to post that the course will be closed to local play , will that occur again ?
i am assuming course is closed to casual play that day  ?

thanks

Yes, the course will be closed for casual play both days, and the Mokena Park District has indicated they are willing to help us enforce this. In fact, they mentioned it to me, not the other way around.

Custom Stamped discs will be in Monday (along with baskets). As usual, Mike Kursell did a fantastic job. I gave him a tough task for this one. Imagine trying to make a leaf look like metal using only one color....

Poster is supposed to be done today, and as long as there's time to get it printed, we'll have posters for Iron Leaf.

The rest of the players pack will be "funny money".

If anyone has any other questions, please let me know.

Posters are in, and they look sweet. Players pack is really simple this time. Poster, and $7 Aces and Chains gift card.

Hope to see a lot of J-town players there...
