5 Way to Get Involved with The Championship The Championship is almost here, and it’s on track to be one of the biggest yet. The United States Disc Golf Championship started in 1999 to bring the best disc golfers together to compete for the title of the United States Disc Golf Championship. Since then, there have been some minor changes to the event, but nothing quite like this year.  In 2020, the Women’s National Championship returned to Winthrop University due to the pandemic canceling the US Women’s Disc Golf Championship. It was a natural fit to have the women competing alongside th ..read more

Junior Worlds – An Account from Hayden Wiebusch’s Perspective Day 1 – Monday, July 5, 2021 4 am, or maybe earlier in the morning, we woke up and started the big drive down to Kansas. I didn’t like that we had to get up so early. When we got to Emporia, KS it was around lunchtime. I couldn’t wait to eat! After we ate lunch, we drove down to the event. I competed in field events including putting, long drive, and mini-golf. I threw a Throw Pink Star Mako3 109 feet for my longest drive! I was sweating up a storm after the field events. After the field events, we went to check out our hotel room ..read more

Katie's Journey: Anxiety and Disc Golf I woke around 3 am. Still half asleep, I noticed my heart racing, pounding, actually. I saw my body shaking uncontrollably, as I've never experienced before. My muscles tightened. I began trying to gasp for air and take deep breaths as tears ran down my face, but nothing helped. I wanted to scream out for my parents but not being physically able to speak. As I sat crying on my bed, I tucked my knees in, curled into a ball, and began to rock back and forth. I remember at that moment feeling helpless, confused, afraid, and alone. It felt as if I was suck ..read more

Sherry Cato I wish someone would have shared with me when I was younger that getting help wouldn't be the end of the world. It takes some very open conversations to fight these stigmas.

Which of me's is me? The wild, impulsive, chaotic, energetic, and crazy one? Or the shy, withdrawn, desperate, suicidal, doomed, and tired one? Probably a bit of both, hopefully, much that is neither." ~ Kay Redfield ..read more
