The Points Race is a means of linking events together in an effort to increase interest and overall attendance at all involved tournaments.  The Points Race is designed to reward disc golfers for attendance and good performance over a series of many events.

How does a tournament become a part of the Points Race?

Contact Josh Connell and ask for your event(s) to be included.  That's all there is to it.  Once an event is a part of the Race, the only requirement is simple:  contribute $1 per player in attendance at the event to the overall Race Pot.  That pot will be divided among the top finishers in each division at the end of the Race season.

How does the Points Race work?

Each Points Race tournament will be assigned a point factor value based on the amount of regional and national sanctioning they secure.  Sanctioned events will be worth double points, while unsanctioned events will only award single points.

Below are the 2008 Points Race Tournament Value Qualifications:

Players will accumulate points based upon their event attendance and how well they play at those events.  Just for entering a tournament, a player will receive the minimum points available based on the tournament’s Points Value.  The top four finishers in each division will receive extra points, the amount of which rises incrementally from fourth to first place.

The breakdown of the 2008 Point Factors is below:
