- One of the DYC traditions is when the head instructor retires a new DYC shirt is created. Oliver Roth took it a step further. He designed them! Then he customized every shirt for instructors, alumni, family & friends. Each shirt indicates the last name of the person on the back with the year he or she won the Perpetual or the number 62, which is the first year of the Perpetual.
