Discover Disc Golf is a national initiative designed to introduce new players to the sport through high-energy, hands-on experiences at large-scale events like state and regional fairs.
Our mission is simple:
Put a disc in people’s hands and let them experience the game instantly
We believe the fastest way to grow disc golf is not waiting for people to find it—but bringing the sport directly to them.
Why It Matters
Disc golf has grown rapidly, but most growth still happens within the existing community.
Millions of people attend large fairs and festivals every year—but have never thrown a disc.
Discover Disc Golf bridges that gap by:
Creating fun, first-time experiences
Removing barriers to entry
Making the sport easy to understand in seconds
If someone tries disc golf once, they are far more likely to play again
We build and operate large-scale Disc Golf Experience Zones inside major events.
Each activation is designed to be:
Easy to try
Fast-moving
Highly engaging
Memorable
A Typical Experience Includes:
Ace Run Challenge
Take your shot at hitting an ace and winning a prize
Putting Zones
Quick, fun stations for all ages and skill levels
Skill Challenges
Games designed to keep people engaged and coming back
Media Displays
Watch highlights and see what the sport looks like at a high level
Starter Packs & Gear
Everything needed to begin playing immediately
Our Strategy: Fairs & Festivals
We focus on state, county, and regional fairs—some of the highest-attended, family-friendly events in the country.
Why fairs work:
Massive reach: 200,000+ attendees at many events
All ages: Kids, teens, and adults in one place
Built-in intent: People are looking for fun things to try
Repeat exposure: Multi-day events drive return visits
Instant play zones so anyone can try in seconds
High-energy challenges (ace runs, putting games) that draw crowds
Beginner-friendly setup designed for first-time throws
Clear next step to play locally after the event
The result: We introduce kids and adults to a fun, healthy, outdoor activity—on the spot.
We convert curiosity into first throws, first rounds, and new players.
Our Impact
At a single event, Discover Disc Golf can:
Introduce 2,000–5,000+ people to the sport
