patrick park disc golf course
contact: Email: padg.yorkton@gmail.com Patrick Park Disc Golf Course was opened in June 2011, and the original nine basket course has proved a challenge for experienced disc golfers, and yet forgiving for beginners since the course does not have hazards where discs can be lost. In 2015, in cooperation with local disc golfers, and the support of the City, alternative tee placements were installed, effectively extending the course to an 18. For those wanting to try the game, discs can also be picked up at the City’s Parks Shop at 263 Myrtle Avenue during regular business hours. Anyone seeking additional information on the sport, wanting details of upcoming tournament events, or help in starting a plan for a new area course can email padg.yorkton@gmail.com.
