Players in the upcoming Butler County Disc Golf Classic (BCDGC) will be aiming to qualify for a limited number of spots in the United States Disc Golf Championship and the Throw Pink Women’s Disc Golf Championship.
Disc golf is a game that is scored in a similar way to golf, but rather than clubs and a ball, a flying disc is thrown towards targets. The targets are usually metal baskets installed above the ground, which act as the “hole” where a player's final shot lands. Just like in golf, trees and natural hazards can be obstacles to a disc golf player.
The Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA) is the sport’s sanctioning body and has over 300,000 members around the world who play on nearly 10,000 courses. Nine-hole courses can be located on as little as five acres and often are partnered with existing parks and recreational areas.
The three-day tournament in Cranberry Township has been moved to May this year and will include play for both professionals and amateurs. For the pros, the event also features $5,000 in added cash to be split among competitive divisions. Amateur players can receive coupons of $20 to put toward related merchandise.
Sponsors of sporting events such as this frequently obtain professional Graphic Design Services for use in products and advertising.
The Butler County Disc Golf Classic will be held Friday, May 9 to Sunday, May 11, at North Boundary Park in Cranberry Township.
