Great resource for PE teachers
This book is particularly great for any PE teacher that wants to include a unit on disc golf. As someone with almost 30 years experience in physical education, I can say the text is easy to understand and covers all the basics. The teaching progressions and tips are very good, and the authors have done a great job explaining and illustrating everything.

A translation of something that is typically tough to teach in person into repeatable and digestible material is truly something special. To anyone who wants to up their game in the Disc Golf world or empower folks in your community with Disc Golf, look no further!

Teaching Testimonials

Joe Rodriguez, PE Teacher
"I'm blown away by the instruction, the experience, the rapport of the students right off the bat. The kids are excited and they're learning something every time. And it's really nice that it's different for every kid and there's feedback for every kid."
-
Glenn Steinman, PE Teacher
"The pros could not identify which kids had special needs and which kids didn't... That's a huge plus for any physical education curriculum. If we can address all needs and put everybody on an equal playing field, that's such a win."
