The 2018 So Cal Disc Golf Championships are coming soon – one event to a old-time favorite course that is (partly) going away and the other event to a brand new venue.
This year’s Am event will be held at La Mirada Regional Park, Sat/Sun November 10/11, 2018 – 2 rounds on Saturday and one on Sunday, alternating between the Lakeside and Backside courses. This will probably be the last time that the Backside course will be used in a sanctioned competitive event, as that portion of the park is scheduled to become parking for the water park or a maintenance yard or some other dumb thing that isn’t an historic disc golf course. Online registration is opening on DGU on Sunday, 10/21 at 7pm at this link: http://www.discgolfunited.com/disc-golf-tournaments/event-detail.cfm/tourn_id/5899
The Pros will be playing the following weekend farther north, just outside of Santa Ynez at Cachuma Lake. The Lake Cachuma course was installed earlier this year and has gotten rave reviews. The new Mohawk course was permanently installed this past week, so the concrete tee pads will be hardened and trees ready to snag wayward throws. 3 rounds, Sat/Sun November 17/18, 2018. Registration is also on DGU and is now open at this link: http://www.discgolfunited.com/disc-golf-tournaments/event-detail.cfm/tourn_id/5882
