The Case

Why Disc Golf Belongs in
Education

Disc golf is the fastest-growing school sport you haven't heard of yet. We make it easy to introduce with minimal fuss and maximum impact.

Accessible to all ages, genders and abilities

No specialist skills or prior experience are required. Every student can pick up a disc and play within minutes, building confidence from the first throw.

Settings

Solutions for Every
Education Setting

From a single portable basket to a permanent campus course.

01

Primary schools

Short, safe courses with soft discs for fun

We focus on fundamental movement skills and pure enjoyment. Every child throws, laughs and builds confidence from the first minute.

02

Secondary schools

Longer layouts for curriculum and interschool competition

We integrate disc golf into HPE and outdoor education. Leadership opportunities emerge naturally as students organise games and mentor peers.

03

Universities

Championship-calibre courses for campus activation and clubs

A course transforms underused land into a wellbeing asset. It draws students outside, builds connection and hosts serious competition.

04

Outdoor education

Adventure-based learning and vocational pathways

We design courses that teach environmental interpretation and outdoor leadership. Students gain practical skills for careers in recreation and land management.

Formats

Compact Formats That Work
on Any Campus

You do not need a dedicated sports field. Disc golf fits into courtyards, ovals, nature strips and underutilised spaces. We will recommend the right format based on your space, student numbers and budget.

Six baskets, quick setup for PE rotations and events

Ideal for introducing the sport across multiple classes in a single day. Pack it away when the bell rings.

Feedback

Hear From
Our Partners

What schools, councils and communities tell us after their course goes in.

DiscGolfPark has designed a fantastic 18-tee course at Tintinara incorporating the features of the natural landscape. It is a great playing course for all ages and skill levels taking in lake views and walking trails through the native vegetation. The DiscGolfPark staff were exceptional in their knowledge of the sport and course design. They were also very helpful, timely and supportive every step of the way regardless of distance, ensuring the equipment was of high quality and the installation process was trouble-free. I highly recommend DiscGolfPark and look forward to the growth of the sport and more courses being developed in South Australia.

The service provided by the team at RAD has been excellent, from the initial consultation to the detailed planning of the course. They were able to maximise the space at Christian College Geelong and provide an excellent course.

It was great working with Andrew and the team. They designed a great course that looks and plays amazing. Campers have been enjoying the challenge and flexibility of the course. Highly recommend Andrew to everyone.

I engaged Andrew Ferguson from RAD seeking advice about how to approach my Council about installing a disc golf course. He provided everything I needed to speak to council, local golf clubs, and the general public about what it would mean to have a disc golf course in our town. 3 years later, we now have two courses within the Shire of Ashburton.

Disc Golf is a sport that is experiencing phenomenal growth across the world and especially in Australia and the City was proud to support this project. Chichester Park Disc Golf Course is another example of the City’s commitment to fostering active and healthy lifestyle opportunities for the local community.
