Facilities & Public Parks

Developing disc golf for public parks and landowners

Explore whether disc golf could suit your green space. Course layout, installation and ongoing maintenance should be assessed for each site.

£7k to £25k Capital Budget

Turn-key 9-hole municipal installations start from £7,000, and hardware-only packages from £4,000. Delivers community recreation at a fraction of the cost of MUGAs or skateparks.

Proven Public Park Footfall

In a separate analysis of 42,259 rounds from 13 October 2025 to 12 October 2026, 56.9% were played within 10 km of a player’s approximate home area. This measures rounds, not the share of individual players.

Rigorous Public Safety Standards

EDGA design standards require 20-metre path setbacks, zero blind throws, and mandatory pedestrian right-of-way for peaceful coexistence with all park users.
