It may seem like an obvious fact, but the most discernible way to grow anything is to get those who have never tried it…to try it. For growing Disc Golf, what better way to get people to try the sport is there than hosting a tournament designed for those who either have not played, or[…]
Increasing an event’s appeal is the quickest way to increase interest, and hopefully number of participants. The average weekend disc golf tournament draws the kinds of people you would expect to see, disc golfers. Tournament popularity, size & stage aside, traditionally the only ones being exposed to disc golf this way are already disc golfers.[…]
Scott Fortier South Bend First SDA Church For the last year or I have been working with several people from my church and teaching them how to play disc golf. A few months ago, we started a small group ministry around disc golf. We go once every Sunday morning (we go to church on Saturday)[…]

The students were on site at Arrowhead Stadium, home of the NFL Kansas City Chiefs, for a Team Smile event. Loads of local dentists were on hand to give free cleanings/checkups to these students. […]
Dixon Jowers, Denise Cameron, and Daniel George met up with some teachers at the Timmerman Elementary School. It is Dynamic Discs’ belief that introducing kids to Disc Golf is an important tool for growing Disc Golf. Disc Golf is an activity that gets children outside and being active. The steps to get into a school[…]
