OVERALL…A PRETTY GOOD YEAR
Brian Gustafson,PDGa #26647, Mfa #1444
The 2011 Overalls were held on June 24–26 2011. The series of seven disc
events began Friday evening with the Accuracy event held at Highlands Park in Edina.
Accuracy consists of 1 target and 7 differ-ent throwing stations. Each sta-tion gives the thrower 4 throws. Rico Schneider won in a playoff.
The Maximum Time Aloft (MTA) event was held Saturday morning, and was won by an incredible throw of 10.1 seconds with the required one handed catch by Jon Drummond.
J.D. also won the Distance Throw with his Nuke flying out 600 feet. For reference you can see in the photo, (left) the disc he threw and the bleachers behind him over his left shoulder where that disc landed. Wow, what a thrill to watch!
There was a Guts demonstra-
tion given by Guts Specialist Bruce Richardson and Brian Vander Maazen as well as an Ultimate pick-up game.
Saturday afternoon was devoted to Double Disc Court and the strategy involved.
Bright and early Sunday morning was the Disc Golf event with 1 round of 18 at Bryant Lake DGC. Jon Drummond won the event carding a 46 for the round.
After a quick lunch break it was off to Normandale Park for the Discathon event, sort of like throwing an obstacle course with Frisbees. There are tests of skill, Trick shots, rollers, mandos all of which are timed. Rico Schneider won this event.
The last event of the Overalls was the Freestyle event. There were several groups that performed their routines, but nobody could match that of Rico Schneider and Paul Smith – some World

2011 Mider Cup-a recapJake Brown,PDGa #40747
I was six holes in and realized I was almost shooting dead. Kelly Greenhoe (Westside) was absolutely crushing me as he was already six points up! I knew that my match was over and couldn’t help but wonder how the rest of my Northside team was fairing. After KG finished it two holes later with a sick deuce, I didn’t know what to expect. After the second match, we all rallied in the garage of the shop at Blue Ribbon Pines. Scores were coming in hot and it was a frenzy of chat-ter, heckling, and sampling some deli-cious homebrew sampling. Ben Peterson West Zone Coordinator & Mider Cup TD announced the official scores after
the first two matches and gave us our tee times for the final match. With a 4 stroke lead over the defending cham-pions Eastside, the North was feeling pretty confident that this year’s title was in the bag. It was time to head back to the course but not after the East Zone Coordinator, Allen Bye and I exchanged a few jabs.A few hours later everyone was slowly moving back towards the garage to tally the final scores. Ben P was keeping the security around the score board super tight and no one knew who had the lead. Finally after a half hour, the scores were tallied and it was time for the ceremony. Ben P. stood on the edge of the deck and began to speak, “Coming in first place…with a whopping 12 point lead…THE NORTH wins the Mider Cup!” The Northside team erupted with screams and high-five’s! It was the first time the North has touched the trophy since 2006! However, that was not the biggest story of the day. At lunch the Westside was trailing the East by 17 points. But they weren’t out of it yet. With great determi-nation, each and every man, woman, and jr pushed their hardest to close the gap. The West ended up scoring an incredible 30 points, but alas it was not enough. They were reminded of an all too familiar feeling that has plagued the team for the past 730 days. They lost to the East, by 1 point, for the third year in a row.
All in all it was the best Mider Cup in recent memory. Possibly, for the first time in history, every zone showed up with a complete roster. My hat goes off to all the zone coordinators for the amount of dedication and hard work they put into building their teams, and to the players for making it possible. The North depart-ed East Bethel that beautiful October day victorious, but one question lingered in the back of their minds. Where will the Mider Cup be held next year?
As the North Zone Coordinator, it is my pleasure and honor to choose a course in the North zone to host the next Mider Cup. I have been milling it over these past few months and would like to wait and reveal my choice mid summer, but considering that the other three zones will need as much help as they can get I am happy to announce that the 2012 Mider Cup will be held at the Hidden Lake DGC in St. Augusta, MN! If you want the Mider Cup, you better bring

Class jammin’!
Rick “Rico” Schneider was awarded the 2011 title of Minnesota State Flying Disc Champion and took home the coveted Challis Chalice.
We hope that more disc enthusiasts would give the Overalls a try and find that the people are friendly and the plastic is always spinning.
Thanks to the Sponsors of this event Cool Planet and Gotta Go Gotta Throw, and Minnesota Frisbee Association.

2011 South Zone EventsBrian Gustafson
SMDGA Cup Team CompetitionThe South zone held their annual Team Competition for the SMDGA Cup on Sunday, September 18 in Albert Lea. This is a 6 hole match play event and south zone towns bring teams of 4 players.
This year there were 10 teams that com-peted at the Bancroft Bay course in Albert Lea. A big Thanks to the Flying Lea disc golf club in helping out this year as the Pow-wow in Mankato took over the whole Land of Memories course.
This year Austin team 2 took home the SMDGA Cup again with 52 points. Congratulations to Chris Schmidt and his team Jordan, Cody and Derek.
Of course it wouldn’t be Disc Golf if there wasn’t any controversy, turns out there was a tie for second place between Rochester and Albert Lea with both get-ting 47 points. I guess that Albert Lea owes Rochester a beer.

2011 MFA ReportBy toDD erickson forMer Mfa Pres iDent
It was an honor to serve 5 years on the MFA Executive Board (EB)-3 years as the West Zone Coordinator and the last 2 years as the President. I want to thank all the people who served on the 2011 MFA Executive Board-officers, zone coordina-tors, and MFA Committees chairpersons.
The 2011 MFA EB was the best group I have had the privilege to serve with. The 2011 Zone Coordinators were abso-lutely outstanding-the best I've seen in my 5 years on the EB. Jacob “JB” Brown, Brian Gustafson, Allen Bye, Ben Peterson. Their contributions were greatly appreciated.
…to Chris Bratsch for his tireless work as the Treasurer. He also had the responsibil-ity of tracking bag tag sales and merchan-dise. Not so easy of a job. It was a pleasure to work with Chris.
…to Derek Tonn for his chairperson work on the two committees, Marketing and Communications, as well as the Scheduling Committee. The MFA web-site that was launched about two years ago and is a huge advancement for the club. In 2011, Derek improved the sched-uling process by allowing individuals to add their event/league to the MFA sched-ule. The MFA is lucky to have him as a resource.
…to Tim Mackey and Brian Gustafson for their leadership in Overalls.
…to Tim Gill for his outstanding work as the MN Majestic Chairperson for the
past 7 years. Under his leadership, the MN Majestic had a three year run as a National Tournament. Not too shabby.
…to Tom Marcus for the great work in increasing attendance with Minnesota Doubles Series events in the last two years. Tom was consistent and reliable force in all areas he was involved with.
…to Floater Editor Richard Rasch who was able to get out a Floater in December of 2010 to make sure the MFA still had the longest continuously running disc sports publication in the nation. Please help the Floater receives the content it needs to keep going.
…to Mider Cup chairperson Bill Cary for his work with Ben Peterson and the other Zone Coordinators to make the 2011 Mider Cup successful. Congratulations to JB and the entire North zone team for winning the 2011 Mider Cup. Well done!!
…to Election Committee Chairperson Ted Haff along with Derek Tonn and Carl Peach for doing an excellent job handling the MFA annual elections.
…finally a huge thanks to the outstand-ing work of Jake Schramm over the past couple of years. In 2011, Jake served as chairperson for two labor-intensive com-mittees, Membership and the Statistics. Under his solid and steady leadership, the Statistics Committee was greatly improved over what was in place two years ago. and he did a great job with the Membership Committee by track-ing memberships and getting member-
ship packages sent out. He also served as Chairperson on the Course Development Committee and did a ton of preparation work to make sure we were set with the Fall Membership meeting by ordering plaques for the award presentation and making sure statistics and membership information was complete.
In conclusion, thanks to all of you who have done work in 2011 on behalf of disc sports-the MFA, tournament direc-tors, league directors, disc course design-ers, disc golf businesses, disc golf writ-ers, course maintenance volunteers, etc. There's a lot of work being done and I'm confident the MFA will continue to do its part to advance disc sports and of course I wish the 2012 MFA Executive Board the best of luck.
2012 MFA ReportJake schraMM, PDGa #27029, Mfa #1636
On behalf of the MFA, I want to thank all the people who worked to advance, promote, and protect disc sports in 2011.
The MFA accomplished many things in 2011, such as:
• We revamped the MST schedule and scoring system to encourage players to travel to multiple zones for competition.
• We provided a process for Tournament and League Directors to get their events listed on the MFA calendar.
• We awarded three $250 Course Development Grants across the state and extended the course development grants program into 2012
Hailtothechiefhe’syourbuddyandyourneighbor.
4 M i n n e s o ta f r i s B e e a s s o c i at i o n
Consider working with your local public park officials to plan course improve-ments in 2012 and submit a Course Development Grant proposal to the MFA for consideration. With our limited finan-cial and human resources, the MFA can only do so much, but by combining efforts with hundreds of volunteers across the state of Minnesota we can accomplish much more. The bulk of the work of advancing disc sports are done by the organizers & entrepreneurs of our sport...be those league & tournament directors, course designers & developers, people who maintain the courses, disc golf writ-ers, our disc golf retailers, etc. To all those I offer a big thank you and a plea to please keep up the great work!
I hope everyone will consider getting involved by supporting disc sports in some way. Let us know what you want to do and weíll do our best to help you with your efforts.
