Disc Golf
Description
What is disc golf?
Disc golf is played on courses with 9 or 18 holes, each consisting of a tee area, a fairway, and a target, which is typically a metal basket with hanging chains designed to catch the thrown disc. The objective is to complete each hole in as few throws as possible, similar to golf’s stroke play.
Why should you join the Club?
Joining the team is a great way to stay active at school! Disc golf builds endurance, power, speed and flexibility. It also fosters amazing leadership skills, and everlasting friendships between teammates.
What experience do I need?
No experience in our sport? No problem!
