Have you ever heard the history of disc golf in the Baltic countries? Any clue how it all started?
Disc golf has been played in the Baltic since the year 2002, when the first courses were established in Estonia (Maeotsa) and Lithuania (Zarasai). The sport came with support from Sweden and Finland – the biggest disc golf countries in Europe. Format of play was more fun those days – recreational round after some Ultimate matches, or simply a fun round for a bunch of friends.
The United States Army hosted Day 3 of the United States Women’s Disc Golf Championships at the Redstone Arsenal DGC in Huntsville, Alabama today.

Day two at the United States Womens Disc Golf Championships launched beautiful and cool in Huntsville, Alabama today. Although the mercury would reach an altitude in the low 80s, it didn’t feel like it on the Brahan Springs DGC with the nice breezes and low humidity of only 50%.
The players at the United States Womens Disc Golf Championships enjoyed a beautiful day in the Huntsville, Alabama area on Thursday.
