From recreational player to national member of disc golf: a path of development and passion
For anyone who discovers a passion for disc golf, the training path offers the opportunity to continuously improve and move up in the disc golf community. Here is what the path from recreational player to national member can look like:
As a recreational player, you immerse yourself in the world of disc golf, often out of curiosity and for the fun of the exercise. You learn the basics of the game yourself, learn the different throwing techniques and start to compete with friends and family on public courses.
The passion for disc golf grows and you decide to join a disc golf club. Here you gain access to a network of like-minded people and get professional support to hone your technical skills and develop a better strategic approach. Club members enjoy regular training, mutual support and the opportunity to take part in local competitions.
As your passion and skills increase, the moment comes when you dare to take the step towards the elite. You take part in more demanding competitions and set yourself ambitious goals. This is where the association can help in the form of workshops, seminars and resources to take the game to a higher level.
The Disc Golf Association offers specialized workshops and advanced training for aspiring elite players. Here you can learn from experienced coaches, acquire new techniques, gain strategic insights and receive valuable feedback. These workshops are an opportunity to exchange ideas with other dedicated players and perfect your game.
The highlight of the training path is membership of the national team. This is the result of hard work, continuous improvement and outstanding performance in competition. As a member of the national team, you have the honor of representing Switzerland at international competitions, playing at the highest level and making the country proud.
From a recreational player making his first throws on a public course to a proud member of the national team, the path in disc golf is characterized by personal development, passion and commitment.
The Disc Golf Association supports this path through its diverse programs, which enable players to reach their full potential and live out their love of the sport.
