 ADG AGM Minutes
ADG is a sub-committee of the Australian Flying Disc Association (AFDA).
A significant amount of research and discussion went into the official formation of ADG over a 10 month period. Australia needed a united national disc golf organisation and there were a couple of organisational models to choose from. A five person steering committee was elected to research the options and advise on the best model. Their findings indicated that a disc golf national organisation would work best as a sub-committee of the Australian Flying Disc Association. The AFDA is a mature disc sports organisation with over 3000 members. ADG is guided and managed by persons with a passion for developing disc golf in Australia.
ADG Membership
The ADG would like everyone who loves disc golf in Australia to support the work of ADG by becoming a member. The Board are currently working on a membership package and as soon as it is available will be releasing the information.
