Event Format

• Play is based on a two (2) person scramble format.

• In a scramble, each player tees off on each hole.

• The best of the tee shots is selected then both players play their second shots from that spot.

• The better of the second shots is determined, then both play their third shots from that spot, and so on until the ball is holed; up to a maximum of double par.

Objective of the Game

Rules

SAFETY FIRST

TEE THROWS

• Each hole begins with a tee throw. Tee throws must be completed within or behind the designated tee area.

LIE

• The lie is the spot where the player’s previous throw has landed. Mark each lie by leaving the thrown disc on the ground where it landed or place a mini marker or other disc at the leading edge of the previously thrown disc. The player’s subsequent throw is made from directly behind the marked lie.

THROWING ORDER

• The player with the least amount of strokes on the previous hole is the first to tee off on the next hole. If two or more players tied for the fewest strokes on the last hole, those players tee off in the same order as the previous hole. After all players have teed off, the player whose disc is farthest from the hole always throws first. 

FAIRWAY THROWS

• Fairway throws must be made from directly behind the lie. A run-up and normal follow-through, after release, is allowed, unless the lie is within 10 meters of the basket. Any shot within 10 meters of the basket requires that the player maintain balance and not move past the lie until the disc comes to rest.

MANDATORY

• A mandatory, or mando, is one or more designated trees or poles in the fairway that must be passed on the correct side as indicated by an arrow. If the disc passes to the wrong side of mandatory, either play from the previous lie or from a marked drop zone area if applicable and add a one-throw penalty.

COMPLETION OF HOLE

OUT OF BOUNDS

• If any area of O.B. is visible between the disc and O.B. line, then the disc is considered O.B. A throw that lands out of bounds, must be played from a point up to 1 meter in bounds from where the disc crossed over the out-of-bounds line. Permanent water hazards, public roads and paths, and most park boundaries are almost always out of bounds.

Tie-Breaker Rule

• If required, a tiebreaker will be a comparison of the team scores on a Corporate Challenge Disc Golf Coordinator’s randomly pre-selected hole, and if required, by as many preceding selected holes as necessary to break the tie with the total lower team score being declared the winner. (e.g. Tiebreaker hole is the No. 2 hole; Team A scores 3, Team B scores 4. Team A wins the tiebreaker hole 3 to 4).
