Disc golf is played by throwing discs from a tee area towards a target, usually a metal basket, across a course with natural or artificial obstacles. The aim is to complete each hole in as few throws as possible. Players throw backhand, forehand (sidearm) or overhand, so the sport rewards accuracy and precision. It has grown rapidly in popularity in recent years, and disc golf events are a great way to experience it.
Here are three reasons to go – whether you play, run a business, or both.
1. Community and networking
Disc golf events bring together a friendly, welcoming community. They are an easy way to meet players, organisers and local businesses, and to build relationships that last beyond the tournament.
2. A new audience
Events attract people who may be interested in what you offer, from sports gear and apparel to food, drinks and outdoor services. Sponsoring a hole or setting up a stand puts your brand in front of an engaged crowd.
3. New customers and sales
A good presence at an event brings new customers and new sales opportunities, while you enjoy a fun day outdoors.
Give it a try
Even if you have never thrown a disc, events are a great introduction to the sport. You will benefit both recreationally and professionally. Before you go, learn how to pick the best distance frisbee, or browse more in our Sports section.
