Once your question is answered several times and you keep going back to it, it is now off topic.

Ok, I understand now that on "2, 18 hole courses" only one hole can be "hole #7" and a vague unsupported answer to a question is on topic but a clear supported answer to a question is off topic.

So, nobody has put in a bid for 2013?

At this point in Time No.

ADGA has a really good thing going and good courses to play.

I would have to agree with Keith. The ADGA does have a great thing going on now, and I would love for the association to hold one of the Championships. I will bring it up at tomorrows meeting to see if we want to submit a bid to host.

The ADGA did discuss hosting one of the Championships for 2013 at this mornings meeting. It sounds as though we will put in a bid for one of the tournaments. We will look into which one we would like to host, and submit a bid as soon as possible.

We (Lafayette) will definitely submit a bid for a 2013 SN Championship event. We discussed doing so this morning and decided to take the rest of this week to consider which event and to prepare our bid.

We are leaning to either the SNAC or the SNDC. There are pros and cons to hosting either event and I would love to hear from recent TDs and host clubs to see what they have to say. Please let me know if you have some insight that you wish to share.

Also, we would like to hear from the players. Which event would y'all like to come to Lafayette for?

I love playing Lafayette for any tournament but would prefer snac of I had my choice.

No Lafayette, go for the Doubles. Doubles doubles doubles

Doubles are twice as fun right Hef?

I liked it in 2010 in Memphis with Am and Pro championships together. It was nice to travel and hang out together with family and friends in different divisions and it was fun as an Am to be able to watch the Pro safari.

Shreveport! Minority DG!

The Acadiana Disc Golf Association proudly submit our bid to host the Southern Nationals Doubles Championship Tournament in Lafayette, Louisiana on July 6th and 7th, 2013 at Acadiana Park and Pa Davis Park.

The tournament will be hosted by the ADGA in conjunction with the Flight Club Disc Golf League. I will serve as tournament director for the event. Scott Comeaux will serve as co-tournament director.

Three rounds will be played - two Saturday and one Sunday.

Pool and course assignments will be evaluated and discussed along with various doubles formats in order to make the tournament enjoyable and competitive for all players.

A player's party will be held Saturday night. There are many venues in and around Lafayette with the capacity to host an outstanding player's party. A location will be selected with emphasis on showcasing our city's unique culture and cuisine. There will be a Disc Golf related function at the party - possibly miniature golf or rings-of-fire.

Keith Bodin has enthusiatically agreed to organize the field events for Saturday afternoon. His approach will be a "tournament-within-a-tournament" in order to make the skills contest a real highlight of the weekend. It will be challenging and fun and will have substantial cash and prizes on the line.

Fundraising goal - if we are awarded this bid, a yearlong effort will begin to provide players packs whose value matches or exceeds entry fees to all participants and a player's party that is 100% sponsored in addition to payouts of no less than 200% in all divisions. This effort will be multi-faceted and will include CFR disc sales beginning as soon as this summer, fundraiser singles and doubles tournaments, sale of corporate sponsorships and bank robbery (just kidding).

I will also apply to have this tournament named as one of the 2013 Louisiana Governor's Games. We will contact the local media in an effort to garner television and print coverage.

I submit to the SN Board and players that Lafayette is 100% capable of hosting a tournament that we can all be proud to call OUR championship. Consider that for the 2011-2012 season, two of Lafayette's events will be in the SN's top ten highest valued tournaments.

Give us a year to get ready for a championship and we will break records, I ga-ron-tee!!

Great Job Jaques; I know y'all will

Look forward to a coonass welcome!

Thats why i love living here!

Yesssssss!!!!!!!!! I am a happy disc golfer at the moment, I just hope we win the bid and I know it will be awesome!!!!!! I was hoping we would bid for the doubles so that the pros from Lafayette can have a chance to play a championship on their home course.

Hey TD's needs some bids for hosting championships. Some new sites would be awesome. I would like to play somewhere I have not yet!!!

we have one bid for doubles and no bids for anything else?????

Hope we can have a championship!!!!

has there been any other bids on on the SNPC/SNDC/SNAC ?

2012-2013 SNDC has been awarded to Lafayette Louisiana/ADGA. Make plans to come play doubles Cajun style!!!! ADGA is going to blow this up!

When is the deadline to put in a bid? I'd like to get through the 2012 sndc first if possible.

Robby, we would shoot to have them filled by the SNPC, I believe more time has been allowed in the past.

Can I put in a request for a pushed back deadline?

8. The tournament will be a minimum 3 and a half rounds. There can be a cut after the 3rd round. A finals will be held (format determined by the host, i.e. score continuing, skins, ect...)


a question regarding this guideline - what if the 3rd round was on a course with par in the upper 60s and distance over 10,000 feet? (basically a 1 1/2 rounds in itself compared to the typical course)

if such a course were used in round 3, would there still be the requirement for another 9 holes to be played? (not including finals)

Clayton, going by what you are saying... Why couldn't it be used in any of the 3 rounds? Also, you said "not including finals" , the 1/2 round mentioned in the guidelines are usually the finals (final 9). Let me know if I am misunderstanding your question.
