This could be the last winter before disc golf takes its first step into the mainstream. There's been a couple of ESPN ace highlights in the past year. The sports network sees it as a novel, quirky highlight opportunity to keep viewers' attention, and the interest of the broader publicly may have been collectively piqued? In 2016 the mainstream sports fans will be able to take a closer look. There will be 3 new pro-tours debuting next year with strong financial backing, including a world tour and two espn broadcasts confirmed. What will they think? Will it be taken seriously?
Allthingsdiscgolf.com has been following these trends, including discussions on how course design and development can shape the legibility and legitimacy of the sport as it pushes through some growing pains of disc golf's 'teenage' years:

Planning for charity events for two of our local disc golfers are under way. I am looking for sponsors to help with donations for prizes and raffle items to help raise some funds to help some of our own out. If you have any ideas or contacts that you think could help, please let me know. The first event will be September 13th to help raise money for Mike Broda. Another event will follow around the end of the month or early October for Bill Savage and his wife. This includes everything and anything, and any help will be greatly appreciated. Both events will have 100% of proceeds going right to each individual, and this will include entry fees and any other monies raised during the events, with things like raffles, 50/50, and anything else we come up with. Please keep an eye out here and on facebook for more info and spread the word to help support those who really need it.

I am contacting any disc golf company I can think of. So far MVP has committed to send something. I'm also going to reach out to some sellers and goods manufacturers like Keen and Grip. We could use help with local business donations for each if you have any ideas on your part of town. I'm working with some east side locals to do just this. Disc golf retailers, restaurants, whatever. I have a typed letter if anybody needs it to help show this is legit. Just let me know and I can email it to whoever needs it.
