FAQ

Where I can find all the important info?

• From our website: https://amtour.eu/;
• Ask additional information about The AmTour by Innova Champion Discs from the Tour director Margo Peters (margo@discsport.ee); 
• Contact the local organizer either by email or via Discgolf Metrix (https://discgolfmetrix.com/3185125) by choosing the competition about which the question arise

How many days does the competition last?

• Each competition always takes place for three days (Friday – Sunday) and one round is played per day. There is a minimum of one practice day before the competition.

Can I participate in The AmTour if I am PRO-class player?

• You can participate according to PDGA rules and limitations. If your PDGA rating is over 969 and you are PRO-class player, you can not participate. This is the maximum limit for MA1 division for PRO status. If you are AM status in PDGA, then there is no maximum limit. Other divisions are based on PDGA rules and standards:https://www.pdga.com/pdga-documents/tour-documents/divisions-ratings-and-points-factors and https://www.pdga.com/international/international-program-guide

If during The AmTour my rating increases with PDGA update over the division limits, can I participate in the same division till the end of the tour?

• If you start The AmTour in one division and your rating rises over the PDGA limit (as example MA3 <900), in the next competition you must play in a higher division (MA2). We also apply an exception for AM status players (2.02B PDGA rule https://www.pdga.com/rules/competition-manual/202). It is valid only, if the player has not competed in a higher division at any time during the Series (TOUR) and the player’s rating does not exceed 20 points above the rating ceiling for the division they wish to compete in. It means that players can not participate in other PDGA sanctioned competitions in higher divisions. It shall not apply to Professional-class players competing in Amateur divisions.

If I can not participate can I get my payment back?

• Then applies PDGA rule 1.03 about withdrawals and refunds. https://www.pdga.com/rules/competition-manual/103 Our minimum administration fee is 5€.

How will The AmTour points be calculated? Where can I see the leaderboard?

• The point system you can find in our website: https://amtour.eu/ The total stand after each competition will be uploaded to Discgolf Metrix: https://discgolfmetrix.com/3185125

If I change then division during the tour, what happens with my collected points?

• Points are division based only and do not transfer to another division. Therefore, if the division changes after the first competition, the following points will be counted for the player already in the new division. We encourage players to choose their starting division higher, if their rating is close to division maximum.

What kind of prizes are offered in competitions? Can I get money?

• Prizes are merchandise only. No cash payouts. At each competition, the local organizer decides what the prizes are – items, gift cards etc. Each division’s top 20% get prizes. If a division has less than 4 players, players compete for the trophies.

If I want to participate in a female only division, when can I register for The AmTour?

• For female divisions we do not have registration stages limitation, as for MA divisions. So you can register already at the first stage. After the first registration stage we open only the FA1 division and other FA divisions, where there is at least one player registered on stage 1. If there are no players in FA2, FA3, FA4, these divisions will be closed after stage one registration ends.
