Due to the current covid situation internationally, the 2020 Discratf Ace race had been cancelled.
Stay tuned though. We shall present something to replace it this year.The 2020 Ace Race has been canceled.
After 15 years of Racing, and much internal discussion, we are sad to announce that we will not be holding the Ace Race this year. Due to quickly changing state, county, and city regulations and the current unease surrounding events and social gatherings, we feel that it is our responsibility to put the races on hold until next year.
Thank you for understanding. We will be back in 2021, bigger and better then ever. We hope to see you there!
Good morning all you disc golf addicts.
After a slight delay, the Queenstown disc golf club trophy rounds are back. Albeit with the usual Covid-19 safety practises in place.
Today is the last Sunday of the month which means we are heading to Tucker beach to play for 'Kela David'. The Tucker's trophy.
Kicking off at 12pmish, everyone is invited to come and play, although you'll need to be a club member to actually take the trophy home.
See you there. Chanui

Over the past 7 weeks, disc golf in Queenstown has been on hold. The Gardens and Tucker beach courses have been closed during the Covid-19 lockdown alert level 4 and 3. Congratulations to the vast majority who have shown patience and have been doing the right thing. We have all been doing our best to #stayathome and #staysafe. Now that New Zealand is moving into alert level 2, more recreational activities are starting to open up again for everyone. One of these things includes disc golf.
Following guidelines from the New Zealand government, Queenstown lakes district council, and Sport NZ, the Queenstown disc golf club is happy to announce that the Gardens and Tucker beach courses will be reopening when we move to alert level 2 this coming Thursday (14/05/2020).
EVERYONE playing on the disc golf courses MUST follow guidelines set down by the New Zealand government and local authorities to allow the courses to remain open and to further reduce the chance for Covid-19 to spring back to life. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES MAY RESULT IN THE CLOSURE OF THIS GREAT COMMUNITY FACILITY AGAIN.
These guidelines are -
- Gatherings/groupings of more than 10 people are NOT allowed. (We recommend groups of 4 max).
- All players within each group MUST maintain 2 metres of social distancing
- All players are to retrieve their discs from the baskets/targets without excessive contact with baskets/targets. Just grab your own disc. That's it.
- Personal hygiene is IMPORTANT. Wash your hands before AND thoroughly after your rounds.
- If you fell unwell, stay home.
- Please use the Queenstown disc golf club Covid-19 contact tracing QR code located at the first tee (hole 1) and last tee (hole 18). All information is kept private, and only used in the event of a potential further Covid outbreak.
- It might be a good idea to keep a note of who you have been playing golf with.
If we follow these guidelines we will all be able to continue to enjoy disc golf in Queenstown. Please respect the courses and surrounds. Take your rubbish with you or use the bins provided. Respect other users of the Queenstown gardens. If you have any questions, please contact us info@queenstowndiscgolf.co.nz
Kia Ora and Chanui.

It has been brought to our attention that selfish people have been continuing to play the Tucker beach disc golf course during the lockdown period and while it is closed.
We are not sure how the message could've been clearer. The Gardens and Tucker beach disc golf courses are CLOSED to all play. This includes anywhere near the course.
Neighbouring residents of the Tucker beach reserve have made complaints to the QDGC. This could have a hugely detrimental effect on the course and our ability to have a course on that reserve. Don't be the person who breaks the rules and results in the removal of that great community facility.
We have instructed those neighbouring residents to contact the police IMMEDIATELY when they see people down on the course playing disc golf. That's how serious it is.
Hopefully the closures will be in place for another week or so. Have some patience people.
