The Aussie Disc Golf Day 2022 (emphasis intentional) was held during the weekend of December 3-4. It was the third running of the multi-site event. Pictured: Australian pro Connor Donnelly (#133024) of Myaree, Western Australia.
The Aussie Disc Golf Day began in 2020 during the COVID lockdowns and travel restrictions in Australia. During that time, most Australian state governments managed their risk by restricting the distances people could travel, but still allowed limited recreation close to home and, crucially, small gatherings.

Connecting a flourishing disc golf scene across a large continent like Australia is no easy task, but that’s the goal of Aussie Disc Golf Day.
The annual event is set for Saturday and, through 18 events spread across Australia, bringing both veteran players and those new to the sport is the goal.
Over 500 players spread across over 15 events and a continent will set out Saturday to compete amongst themselves and see how they match up with their fellow competitors.
Those two components — community and competition — highlight the 2020 Aussie Disc Golf Day, a PDGA virtual tournament, meaning that results from across the country will be ranked according to the average PDGA round rating from each player's rounds that day.
The winners will receive a prize and, on top of a day of disc golf within the entire Australian disc community, a few bragging rights.
2011 Australian Disc Golf Titles to be played on one of the ‘world’s best’ courses this November 25-27.
Nate Doss is probably the most widely travelled disc golfer ion the planet; and he rates a course on an island at the bottom of the world as one of the best three he’s ever played. The scenic, riverside, Poimena Reserve, near Hobart, Tasmania, is that course and is the site of this November’s Australian Disc Golf Championships. The eighteen holes traverse steep slopes rising from the Derwent River, with views from the top tee-pads that sweep from the city of Hobart down-river to the mountain ranges of the Island’s interior.
