Disc Golf is a superb activity for engaging everyone and anyone and is the easiest disc activity to gain immediate success and enjoyment. What's more, there’s huge scope for progression to regional, national and international level competition – with support from the British Disc Golf Association the Professional Disc Golf Association, Catch the Spirit and the Disc Golf community.

This course leads participants from basic through to advance techniques with fun activities and insightful teaching points. The course follows on naturally from the ‘Introduction to Disc Sports’ course and can be delivered on the same day.
