THE COURSE
The course is located just outside of the city of Őriszentpéter, a small town very close to the triple slovenian-austrian-hungarian border. It is a 4 min car ride from the official accommodation.
If you have already been to Őrség Open, then you know what to expect, the course will be the same as in previous years, maybe some smaller changes will be administered depending on how the farmlands look like.
If you have not yet been to Őrség, then please expect an agricultural/forest landscape, in the heart of a national park, with tight wooded holes, long crushes, and some holes where finesse is required to score well.
We will have tournament tents at the course to keep us safe from the sun and the rain (if any), and some benches where we can chill between, before and after rounds. Two refreshment and medical stations will help us stay hydrated and safe.
The course map is almost the same as last year with some minor changes.
OFFICIAL PROGRAM
Course is available to practice all-day.

14:00-20:00 LIMBO Competition at hole 1
Note: the weather at this time of the year can be very extreme, temperatures can be above 30-35 degrees celsius. As such, we will have a relatively early start on Saturday, then a longer lunch break (people can go back to the campsite, refresh themselves, eat, chill, etc.), and a relatively late start for the second round.

DIVISIONS
The tournament will be played in the following divisions:
- MPO - open to all female and male players
- FPO - open to all female players
- GREEN - open to players of both genders with PDGA rating not higher than 850
- PURPLE - open to players of both genders with PDGA rating not higher than 800
Any player can enter the competition in a higher category, so all players can enter MPO, but players can only play in a lower category if their rating allows it, so someone with a rating of 801 cannot play PURPLE. Players who are not PDGA members and do not have a rating can play the PURPLE category only if they have not played PDGA tournaments so far, or they have played PDGA tournaments and the last 6 rounds are not worth more than 800 rating points on average.
In case the number of players in a given division does not reach at least 4, then the players registering to that division will automatically be moved to the closest matching one.
SCOREKEEPING
We will use PDGA live digital scoring on the tournament, so please make sure to keep your mobile phones charged. The password for the tournament will be sent to all players through email shortly before the tournament. Just in case, we will also have paper score sheets (weak signal may be an issue).
FORMAT AND PAYOUT
The tournament is a PDGA C-Tier event and all official rules and regulations, and all official tournament rules for this tier will apply.
The first round will be played in semi random groups in shotgun start. The second round will be played in groups by total scores (and in case of ties by lower PDGA number) in shotgun start. The third round will be played in groups by divisions and total scores (and in case of ties by lower PDGA number) in golf start, lower scores start later.
Prizes will be distributed among top 25% finishers in each division that will be announced before the start of the tournament. In case of a tie(s) for positions for prizes, sudden death playoff, and then CTP will be played on hole 18.
