Our vision is to build a vibrant multi-generational disc golf community throughout the West Kootenays, with courses accessible from every town. We want to build a regional disc golf scene that includes multiple annual tournaments and events, provides programming for youth, and attracts players from other parts of Canada to visit our local courses. We want to support competitive players and encourage the growth of the next generation of athletes. We want to encourage new people try disc golf, and strive to develop a disc golf community that is open to all people.
The inaugural Highwater Open tournament is now complete. Congratulations to all our players and a huge thank you to all our sponsors: Andre’s Electronics, Kootenay Co-op, Tribute Boardshop, Backroads Brewing, Valhalla Pure, Alexandra Forsythe RMT & Mallards Source for Sports!
