Women and girls of all abilities are invited to join us for a fun, relaxed disc golf event at Sysonby Acres, Melton Mowbray on 16 May 2026.
This PDGA C-Tier event forms part of the global Women’s Global Event weekend. Across the same weekend, women around the world will play two rated rounds at their local participating events. Scores from the first two rounds are rated by the PDGA and combined to create a global score. You compete locally, but your performance sits within an international leaderboard.
If you want competition without pressure and community without ego, this is the one.
