    The CEDGC is back!

    Welcome to St. P, a great weekend full of Discgolf is waiting on you.

    The 6th edition of the CEDGC will take place in St. Pölten Austria and will provide a great experience on and off the course. The official start of the event is on Thursday September 7th, final round and price ceremony will take place on Sunday September 10th. 

    The course offers a great challenge and is located in the middle of the city next to the Traisen-River. 

     

    Basic Info:

    The tournament will be played Friday to Sunday one round a day with a golf start

    We will host up to 160 Players

    Registration fee is 60€ + 5€ optional Ace Pot

    There will be a nice players pack for every participate

    We will NOT provide Cash prices, but lots of non-cash prizes and of course awesome trophies for the best players in each division.

    The tournament will be played in six divisions: MPO, FPO, MJ18, FJ18, MP40, MP50

     

    Registration: 

    There is a maximum capacity of 160 players. Division sizes are as followed:

    MJ18 (up to 20 players) - each country receives 1 national spot, plus additional 12 individual spots  

    FJ18 (up to 8 players)  - each country receives 1 national spot

    MPO (up to 60 players) -  each country receives 3 national spots + additional 36 individual spots

    FPO (up to 24 players) - each country receives 2 national spots + additional 8 individual spots

    MP40 (up to 36 players) - each country receives 2 national spots + additional 20 individual spots

    MP50 (up to 12 players) - each country receives 1 national spot + additional 4 individual spots

     

     

    The actual registration process is quite complicated and works on a wildcard based system as followed: 

    All interested players need to pre-register during the registration period March 18-April 15.                                                         

    Each player eligible to participate in the competition must be either a legal citizen or permanent resident of one of the participating country or must temporary live within one of the participating countries for at least 18 months preceding the date of the tournament with the exception of players awarded the local organizer wildcards.                                                                                 

    Pre-registration on the event website does not necessary mean a guranteed spot for the competition, all participating players need to earn either an individual spot, a national spot or a wildcard.                                                                                 

    On April 16 the pre-registration field will be frozen. In each division the pre-registered players who have at least 8 rated rounds included in their ratings calculation with the highest current PDGA rating (after April 2023 ratings update) will earn individual spots - 12 players in MJ18, 36 players in MPO, 8 players in FPO, 20 players in MP40, and 4 players in MP50.                                                                             

    All other pre-registered players will be sorted within each division according to their current PDGA rating on April 16 and this ranking will form a waiting list for individual spots in the event of cancellations of players. These lists will be published on the event webpage.                                                                     

    Players without the PDGA rating will not be placed on the waiting lists, players with the same PDGA rating will be sorted according to their last previous different rating (player with a higher one will be placed higher). The same tie-breaker will be used in case of a tie for the last available individual spot.                                                                                 

    Only players from 8 CEDGC countries can earn individual spots and placed on the waiting list for individual spots, all other entries will be ignored.                                                                                     

    The national disc golf governing bodies in 8 participating countries will also publish by April 15 their own national rankings for national spots with waiting lists, specifically for each competition division, a country may also opt to left some of the positions unnamed at this point, with adding the names later, they just need to claim their spots (and pay the associated fees).                                                                     

    The highest placed players in each country who are pre-registered but did not earn an individual spot (1 in MJ18, 1 in FJ18, 3 in MPO, 2 in FPO, 2 in MP40 and 1 in MP50) will earn national spots.                                                 

    Countries can give up some of their national spots, in that case these spots will be distributed to the individual spots to the highest placed players in the corresponding division on the individual spots waiting list.                                                                                                    

    In case of a cancellation of an individual spot, a player placed highest on the waiting list (sorted according to the April 16 PDGA ratings) in the same division will earn the spot. It can theoretically be a player with assigned national spot, in that case, the spot of the player is changed from national to individual and the next player on the country ranking in the same division from the same country will be given the emptied national spot.                                                                                 

    National spots awarded after April 16 can be awarded to players who are not pre-registred, such players have always one week to pre-register after the spot is assigned to them.                                                                     

    Countries can change the order on their country national spot waiting lists as they like, they just need to inform the event organizer about any changes. This allows countries to award the national spots based on the performance of players later during the season (i.e. to first claim unnamed spots but later subnit the ranking of players with names).                                                                                 

    The limited amount of tournament organizer wildcards (12 spots) can be awarded at any time to players who are not pre-registered. The selction of these players is solely on the local event organizer.                                                                                 

    All players with any type of spot will be informed about the spot assignment with 24 hours through an email address used in pre-registration, or an email address provided by the country with their national ranking lists.                                                                                  

                                                            So all in all what’s important?

    Just register before April 15th! After that deadline all the spots will be assigned and you will be informed if you grabbed a spot or not. The good news are: We have a total capacity of 160 players, so there will be space for almost everyone :)

    Payments:

    For MPO, FPO, MP40 and MP50 the tournament fee is 60€. Only for MJ18 and FJ18 the fee is 40€. This includes the organization of the event, a sweet players pack for every participant, prices for all divisions, side events. 

    The optional Ace Pot is 5€ and needs to be paid together with the registration fee. 

     

    The tournament fees and any other associated fees are to be paid to the event organizer within 2 weeks after the spots are assigned to players or claimed by the country. Thus, for the most of the spots the deadline will be April 30.                                                                                  

    Players can pay the fees individually, or they can in groups. It is possible to pay for a large group of players from one country together in one payment if a national disc golf governing body requests so. In that case an individual request to the organizer is necessary.                                                                        

    The local organizer will issue invoices for fee payments if requested by the payer.
