Event Support

Innova proudly supports hundreds of events each year from local C-tiers to the most prestigious tournaments in disc golf. Our support programs are designed to maximize value and help raise the funds necessary to run a great event. We offer a variety of options and we’re always happy to tailor support that makes sense for your event.

In return for our support, we ask that Innova be actively promoted as a key sponsor of your event. This includes social media promotion, Innova logo on event flyers, event web page, program ads, event merchandise, etc. We also ask that our banners be displayed prominently at the event sites.

Summary of Support Types

A. Player Packs

We offer player packs at “partner-level” support pricing for events presented by Innova or regular wholesale pricing for events not presented by Innova. We do not have a minimum order quantity.

B. Event Customs

We can take your unique event artwork or logo and custom stamp it onto Innova discs to be given away in player packages or sold to raise funds.

Our custom stamp disc program is open to everyone.

Partnered events that complete a traditional custom hot stamp order become eligible to receive Sponsorship Shopping Cart (SSC) Credits. SSC credits may be used to select Innova merchandise generally used for events and player packs. Innova issues SSC Credits based on the size of the custom order.

D. PDGA Amateur Payouts

Tournament Directors can purchase gift cards at a 10% discount from us for their amateur payouts. Please contact us in advance with details of your tournament. After your tournament results have been tabulated, we can issue the exact denominations and number of gift cards you need for your payouts.

We have 19 portable DISCatcher Pro 28 targets available to support disc golf events on a short term loan basis.

B. Event Custom Discs for Player Packages or to Raise Funds for Your Event

For events that want to offer custom stamped discs, we can take your unique event artwork or logo and stamp it onto Innova discs of your choice. You get to promote your event while your players have a souvenir disc to throw or take home and display on the wall. These discs can be given away in player packages or sold to raise funds. The minimum order for event discs is 50 discs. Events can mix and match from available disc models and plastics in minimum groups of 10 discs.

Support Requirements:

  • All requirements listed above for player packs.
  • Add "Presented By" or "Supported By" along with the Innova logo and your specific event info (event name and date) to your custom disc art.

Our CFR and TFR programs are designed exclusively for tournaments and fund raising events. Qualified events have access to specialty disc models and plastics.

  • Cash Fund Raising (CFR) Program

    The CFR program is designed to help events and special projects raise funds. Events can choose any available disc in our Custom Disc Order Form to be custom Hot-Stamped and/or INNColor printed with their unique full color artwork or photographs. Each new event or fundraising activity must generate new artwork to help preserve the distinctiveness of the programs. CFR discs cannot be used in player packs or as prizes.

  • Tournament Fund Raising (TFR) Program

    TFR discs are unique disc models and plastics reserved specifically for qualified events such as Partnered Tournaments that place a custom hot stamp order with Innova. These discs are offered at traditional custom prices and can be used for fundraising, player packs, prizes, etc.

Tips for Successful Fund-Raising

Plan Ahead

Please start the process very early to allow time for CFR approval, artwork submission, order processing, shipping and advance sales. Production time will vary throughout the year and can run from 4-8 weeks once artwork is approved and the order is in the production queue.

Have a unique and appealing custom design.

Creating the right piece of artwork will really make your disc stand out from the crowd. Be creative or find a designer to create your vision. That extra bit of effort will pay off in better sales and more money raised. Artwork really helps to generate sales, especially with the INNColor™ process.

Remember everyone who buys a CFR disc is a supporter.

They are not merely purchasers of expensive golf discs. This difference cannot be overemphasized. It is imperative that this support aspect be recognized at every opportunity, and if possible, in a public manner.

Order early.

Get the most benefit from the CFR Program by having your discs available for purchase well ahead of your event date. This will help provide advanced promotion and can also raise money to pay for expenses incurred before the event.

The foregoing description of our support programs is a summary for informational purposes. If there is a conflict between this summary and Innova Champion Discs' support packages, the support packages will prevail. Please note that our support programs are subject to change without notice.
