Course

The tournament is being held at the Victoria Park Disc Golf Course (corner of Cedar Dr & Plane Ave, Newington).

You can download the Caddy Book from here. All players must read through it prior to the Players Meeting on Friday night.

Other than a few OB areas around channels (for safety), the only change from the normal layout will be hazard in the bark area of hole #17.

Toilets / Water

For those that have played at Ballarat before, you will know that there is only one permanent toilet at the playground (100m back from Hole 1). For the tournament there will be extra toilets and water stations at the start of hole 4/5 and hole 10 (see map below).

Food / Coffee

We have arranged for a coffee cart to be on site at tournament central for the Saturday and Monday mornings (we’re working on Sunday).

Fruit will be available for players to grab before they start their round at tournament central.

There is nowhere to purchase food directly at the course, however there is everything you could want within a short 5min drive down the main street (Sturt St).

Accommodation

We’re excited to announce that Fed Living have come on board as the Official Accommodation Partner for the 2022 Vic Open.

Don’t let your Vic Open experience end each day at the course when you can continue the event back at your shared accommodation.

Inclusions

Fed Living offers dorms for 10 people. You’ll get your own bedroom, but share the living areas with 9 other disc golfers. Not only that, but you’ll get access to the university gym, indoor basketball courts, as well as the swimming pool!

If that doesn’t already seal the deal, we’ll be running the distance comp under lights at the Uni oval on Saturday night, so you’ll get a front row seat.

But wait, there’s more… we’re going to be setting up a few baskets on location so you can get in all the practice you need at the accommodation.

Cost
Cost for a 10 person dorm is $590 a night ($59 each).
Or you can book as an individual for $81 a night.
