It has been a huge year for disc golf in Australia and the ADG board has been kept very busy guiding record participation and supporting a large number of tournaments and big events. The 2024 ADG annual report outlines what the board has been up to and some of the highlights from the year of disc golf in Australia. Thank you to everyone who has volunteered their time to help run a club, TD an event, support a TD, or assisted in growing the sport.

The end of 2024 also brings with it a change at ADG. A heartfelt thanks to outgoing board and committee members (Dave Kynaston, Sam Ockerby, Brian Clevenger and Nicole McPherson), including long-serving chairperson Luke Turnbull, whose decade of leadership has seen us through challenging times. We now welcome Jeremiah Flickinger as Chairperson and Chris Finn as Vice Chair. With a team of returning and new board and committee members we are ready for a great 2025.

The 2024 Annual General Meeting of Australian Disc Golf (inc) will be held online on

Tuesday 10th Dec, 8:30pm AEDT.

The AGM is open to all ADG members and is a great opportunity to ask questions of the board, provide feedback and discuss what disc golf in Australia should look like.

If there is someone you think should apply please let them know you will support their application. We welcome applicants from diverse gender and cultural backgrounds.

On Aussie Disc Golf Day we launched our Play It Forward program. This program is all about getting discs to new players. With the help of RPM Discs, ADG got 700 “Play It Forward” discs and sent them all around the country. These discs will be given to established players who can then pass them on to people they think would like to play. That person can then use it for as long as they like then pass it on.  

We’ve all been on our local course and been approached by someone who is curious about the game. They’ll usually ask where they can get their hands on a disc; and this is where the RPM Play It Forward disc comes in. It’s not necessarily for you to throw, but to press into the hands of someone who is Disc Golf curious. Let’s call it a gateway disc to a healthy lifelong addiction.

The discs are RPM Tui’s with an Alex Brindle designed Play it forward logo. On the back is a QR code that links to our “Play It forward” page filled with good info on disc golf, how to contact their local club and how to find their local courses.

The program has been modelled on the successful initiative started by Jeff Brunsting of the Melbourne Disc Golf Club.
