Jellie Park is one of the biggest sporting facilities in Christchurch complete with a large building, indoors and outdoors pool area, park with a wood, a lake, playgrounds and grassy fields. Paul spends hours of his day each day here. “This sport is called disk golf. The idea is that you control the disk’s flight so that it ends up in the target. I play every day and we meet as a group three times a week. It’s lovely because you get to see the park every day, see it change in the weather and with the seasons. I first heard about this sport in the UK and when I returned I read in the press that there will be classes in Jellie Park. That way a year ago. I’m not so good at it yet but getting there. We have been really lucky, 59 Sundays without rain in a row last year!” Not that today’s drizzling rain would stop the keen players from doing their round. Disk golf is a rapidly growing new sport already more than 10 million people playing it worldwide. It’s not an expensive sport either, a disk can cost as low as $18 and you can start with three disks for different distances.
