Innova, Golf North and Grand River Disc Golf are excited to present the 1st Annual Foxwood Open, in Baden Ontario on the Victoria Day long weekend. It may be the Queen’s birthday but we know it better as the unofficial start of summer in Canada, it’s time to get outside, crank up the BBQ, catch up with friends and enjoy the warm weather.
You can do all this while playing the inaugural Foxwood Open, one of two USDGC Qualifying events in Canada. The minds and hearts making this tournament happen are stoked for this year and beyond. In 2021 we are planning to add a second course, step up to A-tier status, and invite many more players.
