Despite playing for 27 years on the aforementioned continent, the penultimate jam somehow managed to elude me. Even when it was held a scant 2.5 hours away from my home, I was 2.5 days away by car. Finally, when the FPA’s made itsits European debut did II manage to attend…whenattend...when my body was feelingfeelingtoo too cantankerous to contend. The Worlds in Rimini, Italy (where the streets may not be paved with gold, but many of the gutters are made of marble) marked the end of my 2nd contract for holiday parks in England, where I was doingdoingjuggling juggling & Frisbee shows along with disc golf classes for the kids. The road to this tournament was not an easy one. Actually, for me, it was fairly convenient; only, 4 countries away. Twas not so easy for my discs. Since being in England, I had split two High Ridges from side to side, popped a hole in a sky styler, and severely “wellished” an HDX.

    From: Benjamin Smith <[email protected]> Sent: January 11, 2021 11:33 AM To: Pam Mood <[email protected]>; Steve Berry <[email protected]>; Wade Cleveland <[email protected]>; Gil Dares <[email protected]>; Heather Hatfield <[email protected]>; Derek Lesser <[email protected]>; Jim MacLeod <[email protected]>; Greg Barro <[email protected]>; Jeff Gushue <[email protected]> Subject: Disc Golf in Yarmouth Hello to you all. My name is Benjamin Smith. I am sending this email as a follow up from earlier conversations I have had with councillor Berry. I would like to introduce all of you to the best game you have never heard of and present you with the opportunity to add something that is beautiful and positive that will last for generations in your community. That something is disc golf. Disc Golf is played much like traditional golf except we throw discs into specially made targets called 'baskets'. The cost is usually free to play and there are over 12,000 courses worldwide including 26 in the maritimes. In fact the Yarmouth region is one of only two regions in all of the Maritimes without a course. We have several people from your area that regularly drive to Bridgewater to play and I would like to help change that. Since 2007 I have built 21 courses in our area plus one in Maine and Newfoundland. I have hosted the Canadian National Disc Golf Championship in 2018 and 2019. These events generated over $150,000 each for the local economy in a 7-day span.

  • 2019-2020 Annual Report
    Nova Scotia Disc Sport Society (DiscNS) Annual Report Reporting for 2019-2020 DiscNS acknowledges that we are in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq people. This territory is covered by the treaties of Peace and Friendship, which Mi’kmaq and Maliseet people first signed in 1725. The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and Maliseet title and established the rules for what was the be an ongoing relationship between nations. DiscNS also gratefully acknowledge the support of the Department of Communities, Culture and Heritage in Nova Scotia in supporting the Society through the year. Governance The largest event in the year came at the end with the closure of play for all sports in the province mid-March due to covid-19. The effects of that closure will continue well into the 2020- 2021 year. The year saw the start of a review of some of the DiscNS bylaws, policies, and committees: - Revised the DiscNS bylaws with three key changes: convert Director positions to staggered 2-year positions to improve organizational memory, set the Board size to be 5-7 Directors, and clarify the voting role of the Chair. - Reviewed DiscNS policies with an eye to equity, particularly gender equity. Revisions are ongoing. - Adopted terms of reference for the junior committee We also revisited the possibility of an affiliation with NSSAF to bring ultimate into high schools. At present, the constraints required by NSSAF don’t appear to outweigh the benefits of being part of NSSAF, given the potential doors we were seeing opened with some youth programming.
