Thank you for your interest in the International Women's Cup!
2006 was a great year for us and the Kamloops Disc Golf Club: We played host to the world's best Women Disc Golfers at the inaugural IWC in May 2006 and we crowned our first Champ, Valarie Jenkins! We invited the world's best disc golf course designer John Houck to design two world-class courses at Rose Hill East, where we previously had only one temporary 18-hole course.
We are facing another challenge at Rose Hill West due to the Mountain Pine Beetle infestation, which has destroyed all pine trees in its path. The City of Kamloops is scheduled to remove affected pine trees in early Spring 2007.
The redesign of Rose Hill East has us looking forward to two monster course installations at Rose Hill East in Spring 2007, while pine tree removal on Rose Hill West presents new challenges for our existing course.
So the good news is, when all that work is completed, KDGC will have three world-class 18-hole courses ready for you to play. The bad news is that this work will probably not be completed in time for IWC 2007, which has forced us to make a difficult decision to postpone IWC to 2008.
Please visit our website www.kdgc.com in Spring 2007 for photos and updates of our course redesign and installation progress.
We thank you sincerely for your support of the IWC, and we hope you will mark your calendars and join us for IWC 2008, tentatively scheduled for May 31-June 1, 2008.
Yours in Disc Golf
