With an upcoming tournament bringing many experienced disc golfers to the area, those interested in learning more about the game will have an opportunity later this week.
The first ever Butler County Disc Golf Classic begins Friday in North Boundary Park in Cranberry Township and will see around 140 of the best men and women disc golfers compete for a $25,000 purse.
On Wednesday from 6 to 8 p.m. a Professional Disc Golf Clinic and Flymart is planned for the Learn to Play Disc Golf Course. Those attending will be able to meet some of the disc golfers who will be competing and purchase some of their tour series merchandise.
North Boundary Park constructed the full 18-hole disc golf course in 2019 in response to the growing popularity of the game that sees participants throw Frisbees into a metal basket.
