Jingle Hills 2022

Jingle Hills will be a two-day disc golf tournament that will be played on Saturday and Sunday, December 3 and 4, through three rounds of 18 holes on the Spa Hills Disc Golf course in Toplice Sveti Martin. The tournament is PDGA tier-C sanctioned event, and at the same time the 11th round of the Croatian Disc Golf League 2022. This competition offers all participants the opportunity to combine competition on the course where the 2018 European Championship was played with a vacation at the Terme Sveti Martin resort.

This will be the third edition of the tournament. Jingle Hills was played for the first time on December 7 and 8, 2019, when one of the best players in the world participated in it - multiple world champion Paige Pierce, and a total of 35 players from Austria, England, Hungary, Croatia, USA and Canada.
After the Covid break in 2020, the tournament was played for the second time on December 4 and 5, 2021, with the participation of 39 players from Austria, Croatia and Slovenia.

Registrations
The event will be played in the following categories:
 MPO (open to male and female players), FPO (open female), Green (players of both genders PDGA rated up to 850) and Purple (players of both genders PDGA rated up to 800).
The number of participants is limited to 72, meaning that the competition will be played in a maximum of 18 groups of 4 players.
The registration fee for the MPO, FPO and Green categories is HRK 160 / €21.5, and the registration fee for the Purple category is HRK 75 / €10.

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 their last 6 rounds are not worth more than 800 rating points on average. If those rounds are worth more than 800 then they can play Green or MPO / FPO category.

The registration fee includes the organization of the tournament, a fee to the Terme Sveti Martin for the use of the course, a fee to the Croatian Flying Disc Association, a small souvenir for each player and prizes for the best players in each category (the value of the prizes depends on the number of participants in each category and the amount of registration fees paid).

Play
The competition will take place in the following format:

Round 1 - groups will be formed with mixed categories and seeded groups determined according to PDGA rating. We will try not to put players from the same clubs / countries in the same groups in the first round, so that through the game they can socialize with players they do not see regularly.

Round 2 - groups formed by result, with mixing of categories

Round 3 - groups formed by result, without mixing categories.

Also, all players who book accommodation through Lagoda have the option of leaving the apartment / room late on Sunday afternoon, unless this is not possible because new guests arrive to the same apartment that afternoon. We will give everyone a late check-out confirmation on Saturday, the first day of the tournament.

Accommodation in an official hotel or apartments is not mandatory, so participants can book some other accommodation options themselves, but by booking through Lagoda, you support the event.

Course
The 18-hole course is designed on the golf course and the surrounding forests, thus combining shorter, technical forest holes with open fairways.
For the event we will use permanently installed baskets of Croatian production 9 holes (but in a different layout from the permanent layout), and 2-3 more baskets of domestic production while remaining baskets will be Disc Golf Park target.
Tee pads on all holes will be with artificial turf mats.
