It is a non-competitive event that allows both beginning and experienced disc golfers to come out to the course and enjoy a relaxing round or two of disc golf. World s Biggest Disc Golf Day is held every year at courses all over the U.S., Europe, Japan and Australia. More than 20,000 players world wide are expected to participate. The main goal of World s Biggest is to introduce the sport of disc golf to new players, who will learn how to throw a driver from a tee pad, how to loft an accurate approach shot and then finish the hole with a soft putt into a metal basket. Advance registration forms are available at Northeast Sports in Honesdale.
Participants can also register on the day of the event.
The person who brings the most new players to the course will win the Rolf Frei award, named after a Swiss disc golfer who brought 52 friends to World s Biggest in 1992. All the thrills and excitement of being an owner of a harness horse are in store for a lucky fan, who ll be chosen in a drawing on each Sunday program in May at Monticello Raceway. All fans attending the raceway on Sundays in May will receive an entry blank to be filled out and deposited in a receptacle. A drawing will take place midway through the program to determine who will be the Owner For A Day. For A Day Race, which will be near the end of each Sunday card.
