Episode #181! We continued our series of lesser known sports that are growing in popularity. So far, we have covered Pickleball, Horseshoe Pitching, Speed Golf, and Extreme Races. This week we started off with the expert in Disc Golf and had Russ Burns give us all of the information you would need to start this sport and be successful at it. From how to play, to tournaments all over the country, your one-stop shop is his website: discgolfmonkey.com – give it a try!

We then took the disc to another sport and explored Ultimate! This sport has been popular for decades and has continued to grow because of advocates like Neil Adams. Neil joined us, along with fellow high-level players Doug and Stephanie Jacobs as we explored the ins and outs of Ultimate. Get involved by checking out their Facebook page Springfield Ultimate.

Two more competitive and social lifelong sports that listeners were inspired to try were covered tonight. Get involved! Get out of your comfort zone! Try one, or two of these sports and enjoy being fit and competitive! Thank you to Russ Burns, Neil Adams, Doug and Stephanie Jacobs for sharing their valuable perspective.

We will continue this series next week with Dodgeball (yeah, that’s right!) and Cornhole! Email the sport you want covered to acoachsperspective@gmail.com!
