What is it?
The WA Disc Golf Tour is a joint initiative between the three WA based disc golf clubs: Perth Disc Golf Club, Mundaring Disc Golf, and Sunset Coast Disc Golf Club, together with the WA Flying Disc Association.
The Tour consists of a series of disc golf events hosted throughout WA every year by the three WA disc golf clubs. These events meet certain criteria depending on the tier level. Players earn tour points depending on the event tier, where they finish in their division and how many players within their division.
Player Eligibility
For players to be eligible for the tour points and prizes they must be a member of a least one WA based disc golf club.
Timeframe
Each year’s tour runs for the entire calendar year. Winners will be announced at an event held after the tour has finished.
Tour points
A key objective of the Tour is for players to be ranked based on their performance during the year. Tour points are awarded for each tour event played based on the base rate for the event tier level, the number of players in the division at the event and their finishing position. A player’s best 6 events only count towards their tour points total. Tour points will accumulate in the division a player selects to participate in at the event. This means players may accumulate points in different divisions throughout the year. The current tour points table is available on the tour leaderboard.
Note that the tour points calculation uses the same method as the ADG Tour calculation: https://www.australiandiscgolf.com/leaderboard/
Tour prizes (to be confirmed by clubs)
The first place in each division on the tour will be announced at the end of the tour and will receive a trophy. Prizes may also be awarded for second and third place in a division if there are sufficient competitors in that division. The 1st place getter in the top women’s and mixed divisions (FPO and MPO) will have their name added to the perpetual WA Disc Golf Tour trophy.
