Thank You!! 
In 2015 the Quaich Tour witnessed 150+ different disc golfers compete in 10 events over 8 months, which is really something special when you think about the state of our sport 4 years ago. Thank You! for your assistance, patience, attendance, and camaraderie. We have so much to look forward to in 2016. 

 I would like to Thank the sponsors of the Quaich Tour for never hesitating to donate prizes and put up with my endless barrage of questions as we found our feet. Without their commitment to emerging areas we wouldn't be in such a position to celebrate our country wide tour.
Support the people that support us.

The Quaich Tour was 10 events spread out over the whole of Scotland from March through October in the best of Scottish weather. This year we crown a Champion that was able to play at a high level for the  entire season, even topping out as the UK #1 player for a time in late Spring.
Congratulations from all of us!

Congrats to all the division winners

Quaich Tour Announcement

Seppo Paju announces Quaich Tour a priority in 2016
 
In a surprise announcement #1 Sponsored Prodigy Europe Disc Golfer and reigning European Champion Seppo Paju has announced the Quaich Tour is a top priority in 2016.
“We are very excited to host the Champion from Finland as part of our Tour, Mr. Paju delivers a great deal of wisdom to our events which will help us grow” said Tour manager Seamus Scanlon "and we know he is excited too."
The Quaich Tour is a 13 event grass roots disc golf series that runs from February through October at 9 different venues across Scotland. Prodigy Europe has played a major role in sponsoring these events.
When asked about returning to Scotland to play disc golf  “Scotland is a beautiful place, most of my flights from the real tournaments in the US  & Europe connect through Edinburgh anyway so I thought why not do some charity work, I wouldn't call this tour a priority” Said Seppo, adding “I’m not sure how Seamus even knew I’d be in the country?”
Seppo will be joined by two Prodigy teammates while he is on tour; Seppo said “I’m really looking forward to playing alongside my teammates” We caught up with Prodigy Europe sponsored Seonaidh C. and Hamish B., who both hail from Edinburgh (via Ullapool) and play disc golf professionally, what they thought about the announcement. “Yea, lonnsaich an liuthad leis an fheadhainn as fhearr” said Seonaidh, which roughly translates "aye" in Scots Gaelic. We asked Hamish what he wanted most in regards to competing against his teammates in the Tour “Flat payouts!” he said.
The first stop on our Quaich Tour will see the return of the prestigious Bankfoot course in Perthshire. When told of the announcement “pure dead brilliant” said Tournament Director Trevor B.

 Stay tuned to our media coverage as the top disc golfers battle for the prestigious Quaich in 2016. Because disc golf is serious stuff :)

The Hermitage Golf Course UK University Team Championships

4/10/2015

To enjoy a round of golf with your friends can sometimes be memorable but to be serenaded with the fine sounds of a violin atop a canyon wall while playing 18 holes of disc golf in the Braid Hills is unforgettable.
In all we had 46 disc golfers tee off to compete in the 1st Annual UK Team Championships at the Hermitage Golf Course in Edinburgh. In tandem with the University event we also hosted The Scottish Doubles Championship. The idea was to have at least one experienced disc golfer on each card to assist all the new players in the first few rounds and looking back I feel it worked out well. Although Most all of the University students had an Ultimate background and could certainly throw a disc they were new to the sport of disc golf. I can say with certainty unlike the 1st round there were no Ultra stars thrown in the 2nd round :)
 We had 6 University teams of 4 and 11 doubles teams of 2 join in the fun of 2 rounds of disc golf and a final 9. After the first round of singles the competition was afoot and the players were eager to take the course for the second round of alternate shot in order to better their scores.

Singles:
University

1. Philip Nichols 58* Myerscough
2. Lochlan Laursen 58 St Andrews

After the first Round (4) singles scores combined
 1. St Andrews Univesity 243
2. Myerscough College 246
3. Glasgow University 1 270
4. Glasgow University 3 328
5. Heriot-Watt University 334

6. Glasgow University 2 341 

After the singles round we all took a little break to catch our collective breaths before embarking on this challenging course again in Alternate Shot Doubles. I think some of the players were more enticed by the drop zones on some of the trickiest holes. The course at the Hermitage is still temporary and some thick sections of gorse and bramble could make a mistake painful if you really liked the disc. Believe me I know that first hand.

A Huge THANK YOU to our Title Sponsor Vibram Disc Golf for providing £200 in prizes for our University Champions from Saint Andrews who each received a 3 disc set.
Second and third places in the  University division received a 3 disc set from Latitude 64 and prodigy disc Europe.  The Hermitage Golf Course provided the excellent conditions, Simon and cafe staff supplied the excellent food, and Mother nature was kind.
Thank You to ALL the volunteers who provided, set-up, broke down and dragged back all the baskets, without you this event would not have happened.
 This TD is already looking forward to 2016!
