PNW BagFest is open to everyone — you do not need to belong to a club to play.
That said, nearly every event and every skill division will also award club points based on where club-affiliated players finish. Points will be awarded to many finishing positions, not just the top 3.
Every skill division has equal value, meaning 1st place in a lower division earns the same number of club points as 1st place in the top division. Every player, every division, and every finish can help their club climb the standings.
At the end of the 1.5-day event, the best-performing club based on total points will take home a perpetual trophy and a minimum of $500.
Club points will be tracked through the Scoreholio Season: PNW BAGFEST 26. Club affiliation will be tracked by event staff using a master spreadsheet and Scoreholio season data.
Play for yourself. Earn points for your club. Every division counts.
If you're a club director, you're gonna want to reach out. We know how hard you work and we're gonna reward you for bringing your members to this event.
