My Project

Disc golf is one of the fastest growing sports since 2020. It is an activity that promotes an active lifestyle and getting outdoors. Disc golf is a relatively low-cost activity that kids can benefit from for a lifetime. 90% of disc golf courses are free to play. There are also several courses within 5 miles of my school. Disc golf is a sports you can play individually or with a group. It promotes getting outdoors. Think of it as a hike in the woods while tossing around a little plastic (that you’ll pack back out with you)!

Please help me help my students learn a new sport that will promote a healthy lifestyle and an activity they can play for life!
