About Dayton Match Play Championship

The biggest match play event in Dayton!

This free-to-play tournament is designed for local Dayton disc golfers.  Our goal is to provide an experience that breaks down divisional walls and allows players to compete against people they might not see at a traditional tournament.  All players are entered into the same single-loss elimination bracket regardless of age or skill.  Our hope is that you're able to meet, compete, and have at least one more friendly face to run into during future rounds.  Of course, we're also hoping to see some amazing matches along the way and at the end of the season crown a champion.

Tournament History

The inaugural tournament in 2019 manifested from a fun concept to a 108 person bracket in less than 48 hrs.  A couple local sponsors were quickly on board and with their support we had a functional event.

Each year we learn and implement changes so the tournament runs as smoothly as possible.  For example, we're developed a process to seed a 256 player bracket that is balanced and allows for regional matchups in early rounds. 

In just a couple years this tournament has grown to a 256 player bracket with participants from all over the greater Dayton area.  The player base has representatives from all groups from high schoolers to retirees, novice players to touring pros, both male and female players.  You never know who you're going to matched up against!
