The Inevitable 2021 Pros Switching Sponsors Thread

Now we know Paul is sponsored by Discraft and some other companies. Don't have to list the sponsors. It just shows he has other sponsors that are not disc manufacturers.

I'd prefer to add in the companies themselves than a footnote. But I'd prefer to flesh this chart out with more pros before I add in that info.
I could see it working if I made major sponsors and minor sponsors for each player. I'd likely only make that info available when looking at individual players.
Also, I think non-manufacturer sponsors are not as interesting to the majority of disc golfers than manufacturer sponsors. Except Paul's Adidas deal, that was pretty huge.
I went ahead and added in functionality add these in the future.

I think you misunderstand me. I'm not suggesting a footnote with the list of other sponsors. I'm suggesting a "and there are other sponsors" identifier. I just used an asterisk, but it could be anything including the word others. But it would have to make sense when viewing the list.

Paul McBeth - Discraft - others
Ezra Aderhold - none - others

Maybe something like this using a header:

Name Disc Manufacturer(s) Other sponsors
Paul McBeth Discraft yes
Ezra Aderhold none yes
Drew Gibson Legacy, Infinite Discs yes

All is right with the world again. This thread is whole.

I’ll be sponsoring myself again next year unless my PR guy gets his ducks in a row.

Congrats!! I personally have been re-upped by my club. They once again this season have pledged emotional sponsorship. Good group of people!! I cannot thank them enough.

Pretty sure I’m sponsored by my own personal checking account since it seems to be single handedly financing everything disc golf related for me.

I could be helping sponsor some of these players thru the manufacturers but I still can't buy some of the plastic I need. Can I get some Starlite Wraiths before I lose the last one I have?

I knew this was a fraud immediately. They did an ITB, and it turns out Baby Yoda doesn't even use the Force.


I'll see myself out now.

But somebody had to say it.

Baby Yoda has a weenie arm. Discraft needs to make a disc named something like the papoose marketed for his power.

Temp SSP is by far the biggest team in disc golf. I don't see any movers and shakers this season.....again.
