Every year this event is bigger and better and full of new games, surprises and extras. Last year we had more than 80 teams from around the country playing more than 300 rounds of UpDog games.

This is the last chance for many teams to get the points they need to Qualify for UpDog International Finals. (Held April 2017 in St Louis MO)

NEW THIS YEAR – we will be playing a a dual event game with a sister event “the hot dog challenge” in Florida.  AND offering a seminar with Tracy Custer/Andea Rigler and Jason Rigler (Friday)

Bonus prizes throughout the day including “Catch of the Day”

The Mulligan : At registration you may purchase 1 mulligan for $5 (per dog per day) which will allow you to restart a bad round.  To use it, you must stop your round before time expires and turn in your mulligan ticket and immediately restart your round.  The original round will no longer count and the mulligan round will be your official scored round.  This is good for only 1 round (per dog) per day.

Food:

There will be food available for purchase all day in the cafeteria.  Chilli themed.  I’ll add the menu when I have it but for now it is chilli, chilli dogs, chilli nachos, salad, cookies…etc

Players Pack:

When registering you can choose the optional premium Players Pack – UpDog Can Lid,  premium stamped disc, UpDog shirt, and some surprises ($20)  Worth more than $40

All Registrants will receive one free custom stamped disc.

The Field:

We will be indoors, on turf, under lights.  The field will be taped to indicate the boundary, bonus and distance lines.   There will be extra matting at either end of the turf field to further protect dogs in case of an errant throw or run out.
You will be able to potty your dogs just outside the event center.
You do not need a tent. Your dogs must be crated and preferably covered to reduce noise.

Merchandise:

There will be cool winter gear available including hats and long sleeve shirts.

Divisions:

We will have Senior (50+) , Open, Elite and Youth (16&under) divisions for each game and overall.
Open is for anyone and could be considered an “intermediate” division.
