ACT Disc Golf Club Presents…The infamous best (casual) tournament of the year….
The Snowy Mountains Marathon 3.0!
Get ready to play a whole bunch of disc golf in the beautiful Snowy Mountains!
The ACT Disc Golf Club is hosting a fun filled tournament spanning the 5 local courses over the three days of the Australia Day Weekend. 25th-27th of January 2020. The focus is on throwing discs, having fun and hanging out with great people.Note that this will NOT be a PDGA sanctioned event so, you’re free to play barefoot, rock a singlet and some stubbie shorts, and enjoy yourself to the fullest knowing that your rating won’t be affected by how awesome (or not so awesome) you play. Also note that we will likely just be using handicaps for results based on your Disc Golf Metrix Rating but might change how we do this. Here is the estimated schedule for the weekend:
- Friday 24th – Potential doubles or just fun casual round at the Jindabyne Claypits course
- Saturday 25th – 18 holes at Jindabyne Claypits course, 9 short tee holes at Jindabyne Rec Centre, Supper at Jindabyne Bowling and Sports Club
- Sunday 26th – 18 holes at Thredbo course, lunch at Lake Crackenback, 18 holes at Lake Crackenback course, Supper at our Disc Golf Headquarters with BYO BBQ and Potluck
- Monday 27th – 9 long tee holes at Jindabyne Rec Centre, 18 holes at Adventist Alpine Village
This year we have a large house booked just outside of Jindabyne that can accommodate 15 people where we are going to have a social BBQ/Potluck on the Sunday night. All spaces are in full beds (no sofas, small bunks, etc). Cost for this great place is as follows:$50/person/night (3 nights’ accommodation from Friday to Monday). So, $150 total per person. Quite a few spaces are already spoken for but if you want in on the action, please email the club and we’ll hook you up. First come, first served.

NOTE: We’re really hoping that this event will be possible with the looming potential of the surrounding bushfires. Thus, it might be an issue to play all of the courses such as Thredbo if there is potential fire danger or excessive smoke. Please keep this in mind but please register and pay and we can issue refunds after the fact if the event needs to be cancelled. Thanks!
