No date set as yet for the 2021 QP Open
The organisers of National Disc Golf Day in the UK have had to cancel the special deal that was on offer, as they were unable to get the discs delivered in time. We would still love to see people on Saturday morning, 4th August. We can offer a Latitude mid-range or putt/approach disc, a round on the short course and some free coaching for just £6.

The 40th British Open took place at QP on 7-8th July and a capacity field of 90 players representing 10 countries battled it out for honours and a slice of the £1000+ prize fund. Iceland's 15 year old prodigy, Blaer Orn Asgeirsson, took top honours in the Open division. His scintillating 7 under par course record of 50 on the reconfigured black course helped him to victory over Belgium's Maxime Tanghe.
In the Womens division it was no surprise that 3-time Womens World Champion Des Reading from the USA won by a huge margin, with Finland's Katja Hiironen and Estonia's Katre Poder joining her on the podium. That's 5 nationalities mentioned so far and there was another in the MP40 division (40 and over) where Frenchman Mehdi Boukarabila took the win. I'm happy to say that the UK had a winner in the MP50 division - course owner and tournament director Derek Robins recaptured some of the form of his earlier years and was the only player in the entire field to shoot 3 sub-par rounds.
Huge thanks to Assistant TD Andy Malcolm for his hard work and dedication to serving the players. Many thanks also to disc sponsors Latitude 64 and volunteers including Andrew Douse, Mark Davis and Dan Waxman.

The course is now open from 2pm on weekdays and closes at 9.15 or sunset if earlier. During quieter periods, staff may be working on the course and not notice you arriving. Listen for the sound of a mower or strimmer or see if they have left a note on the door to say where you can find them if you need assistance.The British Open is coming up fast, and will be the biggest disc golf event of the UK calendar with a full field of 90 players including 25 from 8 overseas countries. Spectators are very welcome for the finals on Sunday afternoon.
I'm excited to report that Des and Jay Reading are taking part. They have 3 World Mixed Doubles titles, and Des has been Womens World Champion 3 times. They will be running clinic(s) at the course prior to the tournament, and I'll be announcing the dates/times and costs soon, but do let me know if you want to sign up and I'll make sure that you are the first to know.
We have a few Fundraiser Commemorative Stamp discs on sale for £18. Only 50 made, and for the 40th British Open this is a real collectors item. On sale now in the Pro Shop.
Finally we are in the process of upgrading tee posts and signs and will be moving to a letter sequence for the Short Course, which may cause a bit of confusion while we are in transition. The course is in great shape, so come on down and play!

Now that schools are back, it's mostly very quiet at the course on weekdays, but since there is plenty of grounds work for Ali and me to do, we are still opening from 1pm every weekday. From 25th September we will still be working quite a bit, but the course will not routinely be open, so call ahead if you want to play on a weekday.
You might imagine that evening play will cease as the nights draw in, but we are looking to start night golf, using strings of LED's on the baskets and discs with LED's. It's looking like this may happen on Thursdays, so keep an eye on the facebook page and group for news on this.
Just because it's getting quieter on the course, doesn't mean we are sitting back. As I write this I await a new shipment of Innova and Discmania discs, staff kit is on order, more videos are in the pipeline, landscaping to the social area will soon be completed, off-grid electricity is coming, tee and signage improvements are planned, and there will be a realignment of the 18th hole.
